Reports suggest that West Ham United is actively pursuing the signing of Dominik Kotarski, the goalkeeper from POAK Salonika.
West Ham United is believed to be actively in pursuit of the talented goalkeeper Dominik Kotarski from POAK Salonika, according to reports. The Premier League club is reportedly prepared to invest a substantial sum, potentially exceeding €10 million, to secure his services ahead of the upcoming season.
Sources from Greece have indicated that a number of clubs have expressed keen interest in signing the promising shot-stopper, with talks already initiated between these clubs and Kotarski’s current club, POAK, over the past 24 hours.
At just 23 years of age, Kotarski made a noteworthy move to POAK from Ajax last summer and swiftly established himself as a vital player for the Greek side. His impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, catching the attention of West Ham United and other suitors in the process.
The Croatian goalkeeper, who is also a member of the national youth team, is poised to cement his position as a regular starter for his country in the upcoming seasons. Demonstrating his prowess between the posts, Kotarski managed an impressive tally of 18 clean sheets for PAOK in the previous campaign.
With West Ham seeking a long-term replacement for their veteran goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, who is set to become a free agent next summer at the age of 38, Kotarski appears to fit the bill perfectly. However, the competition for his signature remains fierce, and only time will tell if the Hammers can successfully fend off rival clubs to secure his services.
