Try again, Pellegrini: 76% of West Ham fans polled want club to revive summer pursuit of striker

With the hectic festive schedule approaching, West Ham United need to pick up some wins in order to continue progressing up the Premier League table.

At the moment, Manuel Pellegrini’s men sit 14th in the standings, six points adrift of the top 10 after 13 matches.

The team have only picked up three wins, and to help on the attacking front, the club could end up deciding to bring in a new striker in January.

Marko Arnautovic is currently at the top of the pecking order, but problems with a knee injury has poured doubts over his long-term availability.

In the summer, a report from Radio Galega claimed that West Ham launched a £27m bid for Celta Vigo forward Maxi Gomez, only to be turned down by the Spanish club.

Since the season began, the attack-minded star has scored seven goals and recorded four assists in 11 La Liga outings.

We asked you if West Ham should jump back in the market for Gomez, and the majority believe he is worth another offer, but they could face some fierce competition for his signature in January.
