West Ham United fans have been interestingly debating whether Middlesbrough’s Britt Assombalonga would be a good signing for the club.

Assombalonga’s application and work-rate have previously been called into question, but the striker has registered 12 goals in 32 appearances in all competitions during the 2018-19 campaign.

The forward’s 10th league goal of the season saw Boro overcome Blackburn Rovers on Sunday afternoon.

And that led to a number of West Ham supporters offering their views on whether the 26-year-old could be an asset to the Hammers.

The debate was kicked off by one particular account on Twitter and it would be fair to say that many struggled to agree whether their club should be looking at the forward.

It looks set to be an interesting summer transfer window for the Hammers, particularly when it comes to the final third of the field.

A selection of the Twitter reaction from the West Ham fans can be seen below:

Brilliant player who could thrive with an attack like ours. https://t.co/o7MKbFtZWi

Should never of let Fletcher go. Much better option than Perez, Hugill and Carroll
