West Ham United's newly appointed manager, Graham Potter, is focused on bolstering his squad, particularly in the attack, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

With the ongoing injury woes of Michail Antonio impacting the team's performance, West Ham is keen to secure a new striker during the winter transfer window.

Potter has set his sights on Nigeria's Taiwo Awoniyi, the Super Eagles forward currently at Nottingham Forest, as a potential addition to the squad.

Awoniyi enjoyed a strong campaign last season with Forest, but his progress this term has been hampered by recurring injuries.

West Ham's board is exploring the possibility of signing the Nigerian either on loan or a permanent deal.
