Gianluca Scamacca sends West Ham message after David Moyes’ comments and Juventus transfer links

Gianluca Scamacca says he is happy to be at West Ham United amid transfer links with Italian giants Juventus.

The £30.5million summer signing from Sassuolo has been heavily linked with a return to Italy with reports claiming Juve will reignite their interest in the 24-year-old striker.

Gazzetta dello Sport claimed last week that the Old Lady made two attempts to sign Scamacca before he joined West Ham and will make a third attempt this summer summer should Dusan Vlahovic and Moise Kean leave the club.

Vlahovic is being linked with a summer move to Manchester United whereas Juventus are reportedly willing to listen to offers for Kean, whose permanent transfer to Turin from Everton was completed just weeks ago.

However, Scamacca insists he is happy at West Ham, telling the club website: “I feel good. I’m happy to be here and to play for this club. I feel the love and really appreciate it.”

Scamacca has had a difficult first season in England, scoring just three Premier League goals in 16 appearances.

His goal in the 4-0 win against AEK Larnaca in midweek was his fifth in the Europa Conference League, with the Italian currently at eight goals for the season in all competitions.

David Moyes admitted he wants Scamacca to rekindle the form he showed earlier in the season after commenting that the Italian's physical output was a key factor behind the striker seeing less game time in recent months.
