Niang is a versatile player who can play in a number of positions

As per recent reports, West Ham have registered their interest in AC Milan starlet M’Baye Niang. The move makes a lot of sense, although we are unsure whether Milan would want to part ways with the 22-year-old.

The Rossoneri are enjoying an impressive season this time out and Niang has played an influential part in that, but as of late, he has not got regular starts. Milan could probably like their promising young attacker to get some valuable experience on loan and it would do the job for West Ham too.

Niang is predominantly a left-sided wide forward but can also play on the right or up front on his own. West Ham have struggled for goals in the absence of injury-prone Andy Carroll, and Niang can prove to be a solid addition, therefore, thanks to his incredible versatility.

Still only 22, the sky is the limit for the French wonderkid, and he could prove to be a big success at the London Stadium in the long run if the Hammers sign him on a permanent basis.
