However, West Ham do not consider Bowen to be for sale and any deal would need to receive an irresistible offer in order to change the Hammers’ stance. Jacobs told Give Me Sport: “With Bowen, West Ham’s attitude remains that they really don’t want to sell, so there are a lot of clubs hovering over Bowen, but the challenge, like Declan Rice, is to convince West Ham to sell this window and West Ham remain very keen not to let him go. “So there’s a lot of excitement about Bowen potentially moving to a club like Arsenal, but it’s all hypothetical at the moment because West Ham don’t want to sell. But Arsenal have certainly made an inquiry around Bowen to see what the situation is, but that’s what they’ve been told.”
