Report: Hammers hoping to land £40m French midfielder ahead of PSG and Italian giants

According to le10sport, West Ham United are interested in bringing Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko to the London Stadium this summer, with a loan move on the cards. The France international has spent the last two seasons away from Stamford Bridge and he isn’t in manager Frank Lampard’s plans for next term.

Report: West Ham plotting summer move for 24-yr-old long term target

West Ham have been linked with the Uruguayan midfielder Nahitan Nandez in the past and it seems that they are still interested in the player. As per reports (via Sportwitness), the Hammers are looking to sign the 24-year-old this summer. The likes of Inter Milan and Napoli are keen as well. David Moyes needs to add to his midfield and Nandez could prove to be a decent signing. He has done well for his country and he has the quality to play in the Premier League.

He could form a quality partnership with Declan Rice at the heart of West Ham’s midfield. Nandez is a hardworking player who will help out defensively and allow West Ham to play on the front foot.

West Ham United are said to be considering the future of Albian Ajeti, who has failed to impress in his debut season, Football.London reports. The Switzerland international made the move to the Hammers from Basel last summer but he has since been restricted to only eight appearances in the top-flight.

As per Football.London, the 23-year-old’s time with the Hammers could be coming to an end after failing to make any notable impact during his time on the pitch.

Jack Wilshere’s honest admission will be music to the ears of West Ham fans

West Ham United midfielder Jack Wilshere has opened up on his decision to leave Arsenal and link up with the Hammers in the summer of 2018. The 28-year-old joined West Ham as a free agent in July despite being offered a contract extension by the Gunners in March. Arsene Wenger’s successor Unai Emery made it clear from the very beginning that Wilshere wasn’t going to be a part of his first-team and starting XI, and the midfielder didn’t hesitate to leave. His West Ham career hasn’t gone as expected as he has struggled with injuries thus far, playing just 16 games across all competitions since joining them. Wilshere earns £100,000-a-week at the London Stadium outfit, and it remains to be seen if he will be handed another deal with just a year left on the current one. He is currently back tra...

Report: West Ham keeping tabs on 27-yr-old, but face competition from Leeds United

Rangers ace Connor Goldson has been linked with a move to West Ham and Leeds this summer. As per Football Insider, both clubs are keeping tabs on the 27-year-old and they could make a move to sign the player in the coming weeks. David Moyes needs to improve his back four this summer and it is no surprise that he is looking at defenders. However, Goldson would be an underwhelming signing for the fans. He is good enough for Rangers but he is yet to show that he can succeed at the top level. West Ham should be looking at better players with their resources. Meanwhile, Leeds need a defensive signing as well if they fail to sign Ben White permanently. Goldson would be a decent addition for the Championship outfit but White is the better player. Bielsa must do everything in his power to sign Whi...
