West Ham United have joined a growing list of clubs tracking the progress of Patrick Dorgu, the Nigerian-born Danish winger currently playing for Lecce in Serie A. The 20-year-old’s versatility and talent have attracted attention from several top European teams.
Tottenham Hotspur are considered the frontrunners in the race to secure Dorgu’s signature, according to reports from TBR Football.
However, West Ham are also reportedly monitoring the winger’s situation closely, suggesting they may make a move for him in the near future.
In addition to the Premier League clubs, Dorgu has caught the eye of Chelsea, Crystal Palace, and Nottingham Forest, all of whom have shown interest in the rising star.
Despite Chelsea’s apparent interest, TBR Football notes that the Blues are unlikely to pursue the deal further, as they do not currently need to fill the positions that Dorgu can occupy.
Dorgu, who began his career at FC Nordsjaelland, is known for his flexibility on the field. He can operate as a right winger, left back, or left midfielder, offering a range of tactical options to any team that signs him.
This season, he has impressed in the Italian league, featuring in 14 matches across all competitions, scoring three goals and accumulating 1,190 minutes of play.
As the winter transfer window approaches, Dorgu’s future remains uncertain, but with multiple clubs showing interest, it is clear that his performances in Serie A have not gone unnoticed.
The young winger’s versatility and potential make him an attractive option for top clubs looking to strengthen their squads.
