The Telegraph, a leading British newspaper, said on the 5th (Korea time) 'West Ham United is drawing up a list of striker targets that can be recruited in the winter transfer market. Brighton's Evan Ferguson, Wolverhampton Wanderers' Hwang Hee-chan and Middlesbrough's Lateras are among the considerations, he said, reporting his interest in Hwang Hee-chan.
There was also an opinion that first acknowledged the interest in Hwang Hee-chan's transfer. It was Fabrizio Romano, an expert in the European soccer transfer market. Romano posted on his personal SNS in December last year before the winter transfer market opened 'Hwang Hee-chan is still a candidate for recruitment by several clubs in 2025. Wolverhampton rejected an offer of 25 million euros (about 37.5 billion won) from Olympique Marseille for Hwang Hee-chan last summer. Interest in Hee-chan is still active, he noted.
Immediately after the transfer market opened in January, interest in the EPL stage was added. The Telegraph said: "'West Ham United desperately need to reinforce their offense due to the injuries of Michael Antonio and Jared Bowen.' Wolverhampton are in danger of losing Hwang Hee-chan in the transfer window last summer. At the time, the Olympique de Marseille offered Hwang Hee-chan 21 million pounds (about 38.4 billion won). The club rejected it, and recently Hwang Hee-chan has scored two consecutive goals, drawing attention.

It was the news of Hwang Hee-chan and Wolverhampton's renewal announcement that silenced the transfer rumors surrounding Hwang Hee-chan after his performance. Wolverhampton expressed satisfaction by officially announcing the renewal of his contract with Hwang Hee-chan in December last year when Hwang Hee-chan's performance continued. Hwang Hee-chan said of his feelings about renewing the contract, "I'm really happy to stay here and I want to say thank you to my teammates, staff, family and fans. I'm so happy to stay in Wolverhampton. I'm enjoying playing here, I'm enjoying all the life and football."
However, the atmosphere has changed this season. Hwang Hee-chan, who initially rejected the courtship of coach Marseille and Robert Dezerbi in the summer transfer market and chose to stay, immediately moved to the bench with two poor games at the beginning of the season. He also created a scoring opportunity with a sharp cross during the match against Arsenal, but this did not lead to an attacking point and the slump began. From the League Cup match against Burnley, which continued with little performance against Chelsea, manager Gary O'Neill made up the starting list excluding Hwang Hee-chan.
Hwang Hee-chan had rarely been on the rise since he was excluded from the starting lineup. Since then, he has been given several opportunities, but injuries in the national team and poor performance have hampered him. In the British media 'Uncontroversial, Hwang Hee-chan is one of Wolverhampton's worst players this season. There was even an evaluation that 'I didn't see the same threat as last season at all.
Fortunately, after O'Neill's recent dismissal, the situation turned around with Victor Pereira's appointment. Hwang Hee-chan scored in two consecutive games and jumped back to the starting line. Interest and value in Hwang Hee-chan were bound to soar further. If West Ham is aiming for Hwang Hee-chan, there is a possibility that the recruitment competition will increase further. With Wolverhampton in relegation competition, Hwang Hee-chan could also have a big Gorkin.

Interest in Hwang Hee-chan's transfer continues steadily. Attention is focusing on whether Hwang Hee-chan's future will change in the transfer market this winter or whether he will fight with Wolverhampton to stay.
