Fullkrug made 18 Premier League appearances for West Ham, scoring only three goals against top-tier teams like Bournemouth, Manchester City, and Leicester City. His £26 million transfer from Borussia Dortmund sparked mixed reactions from fans, who were underwhelmed by his performance in his debut season.

Despite rumors surrounding Fullkrug's future, Steidten remains optimistic about the striker's potential. He revealed that Fullkrug is physically fit and ready to take on the new campaign.

Steidten also spoke highly of Fullkrug's transfer, stating that he would make the deal again without hesitation. He believes that Fullkrug was a valuable addition to the team, both on and off the pitch.

Fullkrug's performance in the 2023/24 season with Borussia Dortmund was impressive, with 16 goals and 10 assists in all competitions. However, his struggles at West Ham have led to speculation about his future in the team.

With the new season just around the corner, Fullkrug will face stiff competition from other strikers, including Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who is reportedly a target for West Ham manager Graham Potter.
