West Ham keen to sell £30m striker after one season

Scamacca managed just three Premier League goals in his debut season after costing more than £30m from Sassuolo.

The bulk of the 24-year-old's goals have come in the Europa Conference League where he netted five times during the Hammers' successful European campaign.

Paris Saint-Germain were in pole position to land Scamacca before West Ham lured him to the Premier League.

Teammate Michael Antonio recently gave an honest account of Scamacca's time at the club insisting he would benefit from playing under a different manager.

"He needs a different type of manager who will let him play with players to come off him and stuff like that.
