Arsenal, Liverpool, and West Ham United are all eyeing a potential transfer for Atletico Madrid’s young forward, Samu Omorodion.
Caught Offside reports that Arsenal, Liverpool, and West Ham are closely monitoring Atletico Madrid’s talented La Liga prospect, Samu Omorodion, who is valued at €60 million.
The young striker has garnered attention for his standout performances while on loan at Deportivo Alaves, prompting speculation of a potential sale by Atletico Madrid at the appropriate valuation.
Some of the most highly regarded talents across Europe are drawing significant attention from top clubs, with one such name being Samu Omorodion. The La Liga prodigy, valued at €60 million and under contract with Atletico Madrid until 2028, has had a fruitful season on loan with Deportivo Alaves.
Atletico Madrid are holding out for €60 million to part ways with the promising teenager, fully aware of the mounting interest from Premier League outfits.
Among those expressing interest, West Ham have been in the fray, and now Arsenal and Liverpool have also joined the pursuit of the striker. Omorodion’s nine goals for Alaves serve as a testament to his readiness for a leap to a top-tier club.

Diego Simeone, the manager of Atletico Madrid, cannot assure the La Liga prodigy of regular playing time upon his return to the club. Consequently, the Spanish giants are prepared to offload him if suitable offers materialize.
Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta seeks a new striker to bolster his squad, providing competition for players like Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus, with a potential eye on replacing Eddie Nketiah, whose departure seems imminent.
Liverpool, too, are interested in adding the young striker to their roster, aiming to fortify their attacking options. However, Omorodion may encounter challenges breaking into the starting lineup at either club right away, prompting careful consideration of his future should he opt to depart from Atletico.
The Hammers aren’t actively negotiating with Atletico for Omorodion, but they appear to be a sensible choice for the striker among other interested clubs. While he may consider vying for a spot at Atletico, if some of his suitors offer significant sums, the Spanish giants could be inclined to sell.
Only at West Ham can he receive a verbal assurance of substantial playing time next season, as he might struggle to break through at Arsenal or Liverpool currently.
Therefore, the Hammers might have a greater opportunity than the Gunners or the Merseysiders, but will they commit significant funds to a relatively unproven teenager before a crucial summer transfer window?
