Three Serie A strikers West Ham should sign instead of Defrel

|

Nikola Kalinic

Croatia international Kalinic is a completely different player to the one that flopped at Blackburn between 2009 and 2011, rejuvenating his career in the top flight of Italian football with Fiorentina.

This season, the former Dnipro striker smashed home 20 goals in all competitions during his 42 league and cup appearances – with 15 of those coming in the league.

Equally adept at running in behind, having the ball played to feet or looking to beat a defender in the air, Kalinic is an all-round centre-forward who is guaranteed to score goals in claret and blue.
