“Bowen has been told” – Journalist shares intriguing behind-scenes claim involving West Ham ace
The status of West Ham United forward Jarrod Bowen has been updated by journalist Ben Jacobs. He has been linked with a move away from the London Stadium.
Is Jarrod Bowen leaving West Ham?
Bowen has been rumored to be moving somewhere for a while now, and earlier this year, rumors said that West Ham was preparing for a possible summer exodus since Bowen was on the radar of fellow Premier League team Liverpool.
The forward’s current deal with the Hammers is set to expire in the summer of 2025, and the club’s board has been eager to lock him down to a new one. However, because Mohamed Salah’s deal with Liverpool is also up that year, he might be seen as Mohamed Salah’s replacement.
The Englishman was reportedly close to finalizing terms to stay at the London Stadium earlier in the summer, with only a few minor details remaining. However, because no progress has been made, it is likely that negotiations have stagnated.
The 26-year-old’s future with the Irons is thus still in question, and Jacobs has now stated he might be compelled to look for a move to increase his chances of playing for England.
The journalist stated in an interview with GiveMeSport that Bowen is certainly satisfied enough to have a chance to compete and qualify for Euro 2024 simply by playing for West Ham. I don’t believe England is a factor in this because he would have pushed a little bit more to go last summer if it had been the case.
According to what I’ve been informed, Southgate told Bowen that staying at West Ham won’t have any bearing on Euro 2024. However, Maddison was obviously informed of it while he was at Leicester.
His possibilities at Leicester were still more limited than they are now as a forward for Spurs, despite the fact that he made the England squad for the most recent World Cup and despite the fact that his injury may have played a major role. Bowen might also be considering that in the background.
How many times has Jarrod Bowen played for England?
The right-winger has only had four appearances for his country, all of which came in the UEFA Nations League back in 2022, and he is still on the outside looking in with the Three Lions team. He was also left off of Gareth Southgate’s most recent selection.
Despite Southgate’s assurances, Bowen may believe he needs to transfer abroad if his international career is to take off because the manager has come under fire for being biased toward players at “big clubs,” with James Ward-Prowse also being passed over earlier this month.
The England international’s contract is slated to expire in the summer of 2025, therefore David Moyes will need to make a significant choice in the forthcoming window and possibly next summer to avoid losing him for nothing.
West Ham’s successful start to the season may persuade Bowen to sign a new contract, and Moyes will be hoping the “incredible” winger maintains his present form after already scoring three Premier League goals this year.
