da blaze casino: West Ham United are interested in signing Liverpool striker Danny Ings on loan, reports The Guardian.
What’s the story?
da bet7k: The forward has had a torrid few years since moving to Anfield from Burnley in 2015.
Ings suffered cruciate ligament damage during the first training session under manager Jurgen Klopp in October two years ago.
The striker spent seven months on the sidelines and then suffered more heartache when he damaged cartilage in his other knee.
This season, Ings has made just one appearance, which was in the Carabao Cup as a substitute.
Now that he is injury-free, The Guardian claims that West Ham are among a handful of clubs – including Newcastle United, Crystal Palace and Stoke City – who are interested in signing Ings on loan.
A good fit for West Ham?
A loan deal can never be seen as a huge risk, particularly if it is short term, but the Hammers already have injury problems in the striker department.
Andy Carroll is in and out of the treatment room, which has restricted the former Liverpool player to just nine outings in all competitions.
Javier Hernandez has also had a spell on the sidelines following an injury that he suffered on international duty with Mexico.
If David Moyes is determined to bring in a striker on the cheap, it may be best for the manager to look elsewhere.
Ings certainly deserves a chance to get some minutes under his belt, but the 25-year-old’s injury record is a cause for concern.
