West Ham Eyes Freiburg’s Noah Atubolu to Replace Aging Fabianski in January
West Ham United are reportedly eyeing a move for Freiburg’s promising goalkeeper, Noah Atubolu, in the upcoming January transfer window.
The Premier League club is actively seeking a reliable successor for their veteran goalkeeper, Lukasz Fabianski, whose career is approaching its climax.
Fabianski, who turns 40 this year, has been a key figure at West Ham since he joined from Swansea City in 2018.
Known for his consistent performances and experience between the posts, Fabianski has been a dependable choice for the Hammers.
However, his age suggests retirement might be imminent, likely at the end of the season.
To maintain stability in their goalkeeping department, West Ham is eager to bring in fresh talent who can step into the role seamlessly.
Noah Atubolu has caught the attention of West Ham’s scouting team due to his impressive performances in the Bundesliga.
The Nigerian-born 22-year-old currently plays for SC Freiburg and is regarded as one of the top young goalkeepers in Germany’s top-flight league.
Atubolu, who came through Freiburg’s youth academy, has shown composure, agility, and excellent shot-stopping abilities, making him a standout prospect.
The young goalkeeper is reportedly open to the idea of playing in England, which could make negotiations smoother for West Ham.
His confidence and ability to adapt to high-pressure situations make him a strong candidate to succeed in one of the most competitive football leagues in the world.

“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
