According to a report by Spanish outlet\u00a0<\/span>Fichajes<\/span><\/a>, West Ham United are interested in signing Lyon striker Georges Mikautadze in the summer. The Premier League club are ready to spend as much as \u20ac35 million to bring the player.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Rise of Georges Mikautadze\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Georges Mikautadze<\/a> signed for Lyon in the summer of 2024 <\/span>from Metz<\/span>. Since then, he has been a solid performer for the club. He <\/span>has been scoring goals <\/span>regular<\/span> and his performances have attracted interest from multiple clubs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mikautadze has already scored 12 goals in 36 games apart from providing six assists. He <\/span>is averaging<\/span> 1.6 shots, 0.6 key passes, and 0.8 dribbles per game (stats via <\/span>whoscored<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

The Georgian international striker often drops deep to receive the ball and then link up with his teammates. He has a good hold of the ball and carries it nicely <\/span>as well<\/span>. He is clinical with his finishes and is also strong in 1v1 situations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Georges Mikautadze can <\/span>actually<\/span> be a good signing<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

West Ham United wanted to sign Georges Mikautadze last year but the deal didn\u2019t go through. However, they continue to target him as the club <\/span>is in need of<\/span> a striker going into the summer transfer window.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hence, it makes sense for the Hammers to go after a lucrative striker to solve the problem for the long term. In that aspect, Mikautadze could be a great choice as he is a capable player. He has all the qualities to succeed in the Premier League.<\/span><\/p>\n

West Ham United are ready to offer around \u20ac35 million to sign the 24-year-old. <\/span>As<\/span> Lyon <\/span>are<\/span> going through a financial crisis, <\/span>they<\/span> might accept the offer.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
