I suspect there may be a move for another striker this summer afoot, though fuck knows who.

I suspect there may be a move for another striker this summer afoot, though fuck knows who.I was told about them making an offer for him in Jan. Hang on, I'll try to find my post. (Christ, hope I didn't start this rumour!)edit - ok, found it - it was elsewhere. I don't want to say too much but someone with a link to Watkins agent told me West Ham bid £60m for him in Jan, which sounded pretty far fetched to me. The general feeling is Watkins' head has been turned and he wants to be in London, so a move to Arsenal or West Ham could be possible this summer.Whilst I've been critical of him this season I'd be dissapointed if he moved on.
