‘Jarrod Bowen sources issue West Ham update amid transfer exit speculation’
West Ham will be desperate to keep hold of Jarrod Bowen beyond the end of the upcoming summer transfer window and a new update on their chances has emerged.
On the whole, this has been a hugely disappointing season for the Hammers, who sit 17th in the Premier League table, although they are safe from relegation.
A change in manager made by the club back in January is yet to work out, and there are already suggestions that current West Ham boss Graham Potter could be under pressure early next season.
Despite that, club captain Bowen has remained a consistent source of positivity for the club throughout the course of the campaign, meaning losing his this summer would be a major blow.
Jarrod Bowen ‘proud’ of place at West Ham
There is expected to be an exodus of players at West Ham once the transfer market opens again at the end of this season.
That will be done with a view to giving Potter the scope to rebuild the squad into one that can push the club further up the table.
Having continued to be one of their best players though, the England international is someone they will be keen to keep at the London Stadium.

It has previously been suggested that West Ham are confident of keeping Bowen this summer, and it looks as though the player himself shares a similar perspective to the club in that respect.
According to a report from The Mail, sources close to the winger have insisted that he is “happy at the club” and “proud to be captain”, despite the fact he is expected to inevitably attract interest this summer.

Football Insider Verdict
There may be some questions as to just where the Hammers might have been had they not been able to call on Bowen this season.
His equaliser against Tottenham on Sunday (4 May), made that yet another game where the winger has stepped up to earn points for West Ham.
With the pressure already building on Potter, he clearly needs results to keep his job, and Bowen is someone capable of providing them.
As a result, this update should provide a big lift to those connected with the club, as they aim to improve again next season.
The winger is one member of this West Ham squad who can be part of a group playing at a higher level than they are, meaning he is probably the player they need to keep more than any other this summer.
The fact he is seemingly happy in his situation at the London Stadium means they can be confident of keeping him, and so this is one reason for the club to be positive at the end of a poor campaign.
