According to HITC, West Ham United, Wolves, and Brighton from the Premier League are closely watching the promising Spanish-Nigerian striker Samu Omorodion.
Omorodion stands out as one of the four talented young players of Nigerian heritage nominated for the 2024 Golden Boy, alongside Lesley Ugochukwu, Michael Kayode, and George Ilenikhena.
West Ham is in the market for a center forward this summer, considering Michail Antonio and Danny Ings have struggled to find the net consistently, leading the London club to seek a successor.
Wolves, despite the impressive performances of Hwang Hee-Chan and Matheus Cunha, are considering bolstering their attacking options with a younger talent like Omorodion.
Drawing from their successful signing of Diogo Jota from Atlético Madrid in 2018, Wolves are keen on securing the services of the promising central forward.
Brighton's interest in the 19-year-old isn't surprising, given their history of nurturing young talents and maintaining one of the Premier League's youngest squads.
Despite being on loan at Deportivo Alavés from Atlético Madrid, Omorodion has showcased his talent by scoring eight goals and providing one assist in 29 La Liga appearances, making a significant impact in his debut top-flight season.
Diego Simeone, the Atlético Madrid manager, is reportedly pleased with Omorodion's development and could consider integrating him into the first team for the upcoming season, presenting an exciting opportunity for the young striker.
However, if Omorodion opts to stay at the Wanda Metropolitano next season, he will face tough competition from Álvaro Morata and Memphis Depay for a spot in the starting lineup.
