Jarrod Bowen 'makes decision' on West Ham future with shock transfer on the cards

Jarrod Bowen has reportedly 'made a decision' about his West Ham future amid fears the Hammers could be relegated from the Premier League.

West Ham find themselves 18th in the Premier League after a 5-2 defeat to Liverpool on Saturday, despite a run of just one defeat in their eight games prior.

Nuno Espirito Santo's side are just two points from safety, with Nottingham Forest, Spurs, and Leeds United still within touching distance.

In recent years, Bowen has been the club's standout performer, scoring 21 goals in the Premier League since being named club captain at the start of last season.

The England international signed a long-term deal back in 2023 keeping him at the London stadium until 2030, however, if West Ham were to be relegated a transfer would be expected.

Bowen 'very open' to Hammers exit

According to TeamTalk, both Manchester United and Spurs will be ready to pounce for the 29-year-old winger if the Hammers do go down with Bowen 'very open' to a move away.

It isn't the first time Spurs have been keen to steal their rivals captain, with the London club enquiring about Bowen's availability in recent windows, viewing him as the 'complete footballer.'

However, Spurs' ambitions of Bowen's signature would also rest on Igor Tudor's side avoiding relegation themselves with the club yet to win a Premier League match in 2026.

Other linked clubs include Liverpool, Newcastle United and Arsenal but TeamTalk insist West Ham will be 'extremely protective' of their captain as long as they can be.

Bowen's current market value is £52.5m, but buying club's would expect to be able negotiate down if the London club end up playing Championship football next season.

As it stands, the England star's full focus is on keeping West Ham in the Premier League, as well as his personal ambitions on making Thomas Tuchel's squad for this summer's World Cup.
