West Ham United have registered their interest in Sunderland striker Wilson Isidor as the Hammers look to bolster their attack ahead of the 2026-27 Championship season.
According to Alan Nixon, Isidor is one of several attacking targets under consideration at the London Stadium, though no formal bid has been submitted yet.
A move to West Ham would see Isidor return to English football’s second tier, where he starred during the 2024-25 campaign.
The France-born forward scored 12 goals in 43 Championship appearances for Sunderland that season, finishing as the club’s top scorer and playing a central role in their promotion via the play-offs.
His first Premier League season proved more challenging. Isidor managed six goals in 32 top-flight appearances during the 2025-26 campaign, often finding himself on the fringes of Regis Le Bris’s starting line-up.
Although Sunderland secured a sixth-place finish and qualification for the Europa League, game time could become even more limited next term.
Isidor, however, enhanced his reputation on the international stage this summer. Representing Haiti at the 2026 FIFA World Cup—the nation’s first appearance at the tournament in 52 years—he scored a spectacular long-range strike against Morocco, widely regarded as one of the goals of the competition.
Haiti were eliminated in the group stage, but Isidor’s performances showcased his quality on the biggest stage.
West Ham, relegated from the Premier League last season, are seeking to assemble a squad capable of earning an immediate return to the top flight.
The club have already lost Crysencio Summerville to Al-Hilal, leaving head coach Nuno Espirito Santo in need of attacking reinforcements to support Jarrod Bowen.
Isidor’s proven Championship pedigree, physical profile, and relatively modest wage—reportedly £25,000 per week—make him an appealing option.
It remains to be seen whether Sunderland, who have the striker under contract until 2028, would prefer a loan or permanent sale, and whether a fee can be agreed before the transfer window closes.
