Premier League outfit West Ham United have reportedly increased their chase for Nigerian international Raphael Onyedika.

Onyedika, 24, has become a subject of transfer speculation following his impressive performance for Club Brugge in the Belgian Jupiler League.

The Super Eagles midfielder gained widespread attention following his performance in the UEFA Champions League last season.

As reported by Belgian publication Voetbalnieuws, the Hammers are intensifying their interest in the Super Eagles midfielder.

West Ham have lined up Onyedika as their number one priority as they look to bolster the midfield department.

According to sources close to Club Brugge, the club will be willing to part ways with Onyedika if the right offer arrives at their table.
