Former Chelsea striker Samuel Eto'o has been offered to West Ham but the 33-year-old is understood to want £100,000 a week. The former Chelsea frontman is a costless agent after his deal at Stamford Bridge ran out.
Under Jose Mourinho last season, Eto'o managed 12 goals in 35 appearances - with all of his strikes coming at Stamford Bridge, including a hat-trick against Manchester United. These stats show the veteran striker has still got some clinical ability left in him, and a few miles in him at that.
Samuel Eto'o is the kind of striker that is needed at West Ham, experienced, clinical, and can be the key to keep them on the top half of the table. Partnering the new striker Mauro Zarate, they can create a formidable strike partnership which can get West ham the results they need.
In summary, Samuel Eto'o would be a great addition to any team, but West Ham need to ensure if they can meet his wage demands and if they can, they must act quickly as offers from other clubs for the veteran striker may just prise him right from their grasp.
