Frank McAvennie is of the opinion that Gianluca Scamacca could leave West Ham at the end of the season if David Moyes does not give him more opportunities.
Scamacca hasn’t featured in a West Ham matchday squad since March 12 and hasn’t been in the Hammers’ camp since January 14, leading to rumors that he will look for a way out this summer.
The Italian was signed by West Ham in July for £35.5m from Sassuolo but had scored just eight times in 28 appearances and McAvennie urged Moyes to start playing him or he will want out.
“Get him on the team.” He said West Ham Zone.
“If he can’t break into the team after performances like Newcastle’s, then he’s not in the manager’s plans, so he’ll want to leave. He will want to go.”
“There is the potential for him to be a really good player and I think if he leaves it will be a shame because with a series of games he would be a really good player if you get the ball to him and play well.“
The 24-year-old has been touted to return to Serie A with Juventus and AC Milan interested so if you don’t see any playing time between now and the end of the season, don’t be surprised to see him return to his home soil.
Scamacca has completed 90 minutes three times in the league this season.
