West Ham’s Mohamed Diamé Eyes Move to Top Club Amid Liverpool Interest
West Ham United midfielder Mohamed Diamé has confirmed his intention to leave the club this summer, revealing ambitions to join a top-tier Premier League side — with Liverpool reportedly among the clubs interested.
The 26-year-old Senegal international, who has made 30 league appearances this season — including 24 starts — spoke to the Daily Express on Wednesday, making clear his desire to take the next step in his career.
“I can’t say I’ll be a Liverpool player next season, but my name is still on their list,” said Diamé. “I’m ambitious and I want to join a Top 6 club. I’m 26 and it’s time to take the next step.”
Diamé, known for his powerful presence in midfield, has long been linked with a move to Anfield. His combination of strength, energy, and Premier League experience has made him a consistent name in transfer speculation over the past few seasons.
Liverpool, who are seeking to bolster their midfield depth, may see Diamé as a low-risk addition with proven quality in England’s top flight. His physical style of play and versatility — capable of operating both defensively and in box-to-box roles — fit the profile of a squad looking to compete on multiple fronts.
For West Ham, losing Diamé would be a blow, but perhaps not unexpected. The club has struggled for consistency, and players of Diamé’s calibre are frequently targeted by higher-ranking sides when they seek to advance their careers.
While no formal offer has been made public, Diamé’s comments suggest discussions are ongoing behind the scenes, and his future may be decided early in the summer window.
The Senegalese international joined West Ham from Wigan Athletic in 2012 and quickly became a mainstay in midfield. His performances have earned praise both domestically and internationally, with his strong displays regularly catching the eye of scouts from leading clubs.
Whether Liverpool make a move or another top-six side enters the frame, Diamé appears resolute in his goal: to test himself at a higher level and potentially compete in European competitions.
