Jorgen Strand Larsen has been in the thick of the news for the past few days, and now another Premier League club with interest in the striker have been revealed.
There was more misery this weekend for Jorgen Strand Larsen, as he missed a penalty for Wolves in the 2-0 defeat to Brentford.
It perhaps ultimately may not have mattered. But fans were left irate with the way Strand Larsen took the spot-kick, which was easily saved by Caoimhín Kelleher.

“Sometimes you have to give him some leeway and recognise the lack of service he is getting.”

Then the day after the game, there was more talk about Strand Larsen, with claims emerging that West Ham United are keen.
Contact has been made for the Norwegian, but the pursuit is still at a very early stage.
It was mentioned at the time that a number of other clubs were also lurking – and the identity of one in the Premier League has now been shared.
Jorgen Strand Larsen has been watched by Everton
Despite his terrible season, it seems that Strand Larsen does have quite a few admirers.
Of course, only last season, he scored 14 goals for Wolves in the Premier League, none of which were penalties.
He has clearly proven himself in the top-flight – which makes his plunge this season all the more frustrating.
Do you expect JSL to still be a Wolves player by the end of January?
The Norwegian is now wanted by West Ham, amongst others… 👀
West Ham are now looking to sign the Norway international. But according to the Daily Mail, Everton have also been keeping tabs on him.
The information is that ‘several’ Premier League clubs have been watching Wolves’ number nine, so it could well be that these identities come out in the coming days.

Wolves need a bidding war over Strand Larsen
In an ideal world, a bidding war will break out over Strand Larsen.
The club need to sell for the highest possible price in order to help build the budget for a rebuild, if that is indeed the strategy.
Everton’s interest is intriguing.
They spent big on Thierno Barry in the summer, but the Frenchman has scored just one Premier League goal in 17 appearances so far. And the Toffees’ other striker Beto has also only managed one in 17.
Perhaps they’ll come in with an offer and if they do, hopefully West Ham also present one.
