Real Madrid are reportedly exploring a shock summer move for West Ham United forward Niclas Fullkrug, as new manager Xabi Alonso looks to add depth to his attacking options. The German international, who joined the Hammers from Borussia Dortmund last year, endured a difficult debut season in the Premier League due to injuries and limited starts.
Despite scoring just three goals in 30 appearances, Fullkrug’s profile as a traditional No. 9 has caught Alonso’s attention. Madrid are said to be seeking a backup striker with physical presence and experience, someone who can complement Kylian Mbappé and offer a different tactical option off the bench.
Sources in Spain suggest that Fullkrug fits the bill perfectly, especially given his past success in the Bundesliga and with the German national team. While West Ham may be reluctant to sell their only senior striker, the opportunity to join Los Blancos could be too tempting for the 32-year-old to pass up.
With Real Madrid aiming to bounce back from a trophyless season, the club is expected to make several strategic additions, and Fullkrug could be one of them if negotiations progress.
