West Ham to try again for Bournemouth striker Solanke after summer bid

West Ham United are ready to try again for Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke.

Solanke has hit a run of impressive form in recent weeks, with Alan Shearer tipping him for a future England call.

West Ham are eyeing the centre-forward as a replacement for Gianluca Scamacca after his summer departure for Atalanta.

The Sun says the Irons made a £40million approach for Solanke in August but were knocked back.

And Bournemouth insist it would take a much bigger bid to bring them to the table.
