The summer transfer window is heating up, and one of the Premier League’s brightest young prospects, Ben Doak, is now at the center of growing interest from multiple clubs.
With the 19-year-old winger entering the final year of his contract at Liverpool, West Ham United have reportedly joined the pursuit for his signature, a development that could force the Merseyside club into a difficult decision.
As reported by journalist David Lynch, the Hammers have made their interest known in recent days, adding their name to a growing list of suitors that includes Crystal Palace, Ipswich Town, and Everton.

That figure could prove difficult for interested clubs, especially if the Reds continue to play hardball.
However, with Doak’s deal winding down, the leverage may soon shift away from Anfield.
