    West Ham United are reportedly open to allowing Nayef Aguerd to leave the club next summer.

    That’s according to a report from Claret and Hugh, who claim the Hammers’ stance on keeping the Morocco international has recently changed following a poor performance against Manchester City.

    Although Aguerd wasn’t singled out by his manager for the Cityzens’ second goal during their 3-1 victory on the weekend, Hughie Southon believes the Scotsman is now willing to let the 27-year-old leave.

    “Nayef Aguerd – having been linked with both Manchester City and Newcastle – could be on his way if the right sort of bid were to be made next summer,” Southon posted.

    “David Moyes didn’t name him when claiming City’s second goal was poor in yesterday’s comments but it was clear he held the central defender responsible.

    “And it is not the first time his mistakes have drawn a response from the Hammers boot room where we have discovered there have been words about his performances in the past.

    “And it now seems that were offers to be made in and around £50million by either club – or others – the club would certainly take a look.”

  • Expensive West Ham signing has refused to sign a deal worth 10 times his current salary

    Although there was a hint of chaos behind the scenes at West Ham during the summer, it appears that one player doesn’t want to leave despite interest in his services.

    Perhaps the joy in winning the Europa Conference League had something to do with the decision, as well as the prospect of significant strengthening once the east Londoners sold their, now former, captain, Declan Rice.

    Whatever the reasons, even the evident riches of the Saudi Pro League wasn’t enough for Nayef Aguerd to consider moving away from east London.

    According to FootMercato journalist, Santi Aouna, the Moroccan refused to move to Al-Ittihad this summer.

    His comments on X (formerly Twitter) were in response to a post that had suggested it was West Ham refusing to sell him which had scuppered the deal.

    Aguerd’s decision will surely be music to the ears of David Moyes who is trying to rebuild the Hammers into the team they were a couple of seasons ago.

    So far so good in the 2023/24 campaign, as West Ham have won three and drawn one of their opening four games, putting them level with Tottenham, Arsenal and Liverpool in joint second in the Premier League table.

    Aguerd has been as good as anyone so far this season, and whilst teams from the Saudi Pro League are likely to come calling for the 27-year-old in future, it appears that West Ham need not worry.

  • Bayern turn their attention from Chelsea ace to west London rival

    As we hurtle headlong into the final couple of days of the transfer window, it appears that former Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel, now in the same role at Bayern Munich of course, has abandoned plans for a reunion with one of his former players.

    The German has made a habit of raiding London clubs this summer, after acquiring Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur following a protracted negotiation across the summer.

    Trevor Chalobah was expected to make the switch to Bavaria, but according to The Telegraph (subscription required), doubts are growing as to whether a deal can actually be done.

    More Stories / Latest News

    It’s for that reason that the Bundesliga champions have turned their attentions to Fulham’s excellent Joao Palhinha, however, their reported £50m bid isn’t likely to be anywhere close to being accepted by the Cottagers.

    West Ham offered more for the player earlier in the window and were turned down, so one can expect the Bavarians to be similarly rebuffed.

    Joao Palhinha

    The only possible advantage that Bayern could have, apart from the cachet of being one of the world’s most storied clubs, is if the player himself demands a transfer at this stage.

    Fulham are still unlikely to accede to such a request, but they may not wish to have a potentially disruptive player in their dressing room. To that end, Bayern may have an outside chance of success.

  • “Not much profit” – Callum Wilson suggests West Ham have to strike a hard bargain for wantaway player

    “Not much profit” – Callum Wilson suggests West Ham have to strike a hard bargain for wantaway player

    It’s been a long, hard summer transfer window for West Ham United, and with two and a half weeks still to go, there are likely to be more incomings and potential outgoings for the Hammers.

    David Moyes has already welcomed Edson Alvarez and James Ward-Prowse into the fold, and whilst a move for Man United’s Harry Maguire now seems to be off, the east Londoners do still need to strengthen in key areas.

    Unexpectedly, they may also need to negotiate a deal for their record capture, Lucas Paqueta, as it appears that the Brazilian has his heart set on a move to Pep Guardiola’s treble-winning Man City side.

    Newcastle star, Callum Wilson, speaking on the The Footballer’s Football Podcast, with West Ham’s Michail Antonio, has suggested that, perhaps, the club are letting Paqueta go too cheaply.

    “Oh wow. How much did you buy him? If you’re a business man that’s not much profit, you’re probably wanting more,” he said.

    “But if I’m Paqueta and £70 million offer has come in, which is a good offer, you have brought me for £52 million, you’re making £18 million and I have the champions wanting to sign me. He’s obviously going to be wanting to go, no?”

    The difficulty for the Hammers is that it’s now well known that their player wants to move, and in doing so the club are at a disadvantage when it comes to a negotiating position.

    More Stories / Latest News

    West Ham simply can’t afford to have an unhappy player in their ranks, and they can’t waste time trying to barter with Man City either.

    If Paqueta is to go in this window then it’s incumbent on David Moyes and David Sullivan to get the deal done quickly and a replacement through the door well in advance of the end of the window on September 1.

  • 26-year-old midfielder urged to snub West Ham transfer

    26-year-old midfielder urged to snub West Ham transfer

    Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.

    The 26-year-old struggled for regular game time at Old Trafford and he has been linked with clubs like West Ham United.

    Former Premier League midfielder Danny Murphy has not revealed that McTominay is certainly good enough to play for a club better than West Ham United and he should look to aim higher.

    The Hammers need to bring in midfield replacements after the departure of Declan Rice and the Manchester United midfielder could prove to be a quality acquisition.

    Murphy claims that West Ham were in the bottom three for most of last season and McTominay must look to join a bigger club.

    “They were nearly relegated. They were in the bottom three for God knows how long. He doesn’t want to go to a relegation battle when you’ve been playing at Man United and been the best player for his country. He’s a good player McTominay, super athletic, good footballer, scores goals. I think he’s a top six, top-seven player.”

    More Stories / Latest News

    The Hammers also managed to win the UEFA Europa Conference League and they will be competing in the Europa League next season. Regardless of what Murphy claims, West Ham will certainly be an attractive destination for players next season.

    They will be able to offer McTominay regular game time in the Premier League and it would be ideal for the midfielder at this stage of his career.

    • Wages worth £148,000-a-week have already been agreed with the player
    • Ginaluca Scamacca, meanwhile, is on his way out of the club, set to join Atalanta 

    By Simon Jones and Lewis Browning For Mailonline

    Updated:

    West Ham are in talks with Ajax over a move for midfielder Edson Alvarez. 

    Ajax are looking for more than their opening offer of £30m, but the Hammers are keen to finally get their first signing of the summer through the door.

    The 25-year-old is on holiday in his native Mexico but is ready to fly to London to complete a medical once a fee is agreed.

    His representatives have already agreed a five-year contract worth a reputed £148,000-a-week.

    Alvarez, who has been the subject of interest from Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund, is poised to become David Moyes’s first signing of the summer.

    West Ham manage David Moyes has been left frustrated by the lack of incomings at the club

    Frustration has grown behind the scenes at West Ham with David Moyes’ job at risk despite the Scot delivering the club their first trophy since 1980 last season.

    Moyes has been angered at a lack of incomings and feels the opportunity to build on last year’s European success, helped by the £105million sale of Declan Rice, has been wasted.

    Pursuits of the likes of Scott McTominay and Harry Maguire have failed and the club are yet to strengthen ahead of a third consecutive year of European football.

    But they are hopeful a deal for Alvarez will be completed, with personal terms not an issue and Ajax open to doing business.

    Forward Gianluca Scamacca, meanwhile, is on the verge of joining Atalanta after a year with the club.

    He found goals hard to come by, netting just eight times in 27 appearances as he struggled for consistency in his first – and what will now be only – year with the club.

    A deal worth £27.6m – a guaranteed £22.5m and £5.1m in add-ons – has been agreed between West Ham and Atalanta with personal terms not expected to be an issue and a deal to be completed soon.

    Scamacca will be the third West Ham player to leave the club this summer, with Rice moving to Arsenal in a £105million deal and Manuel Lanzini joining River Plate for free.

    With two weeks left until the start of the 2023/24 Premier League season, Gianluca Scamacca still remains a West Ham United player.

    The Italian has made no secret of his desire to leave the east London outfit, but the issue has been the scale of any loss the Hammers will have to accept.

    David Moyes signed the striker from Sassuolo 12 months ago for a not insignificant £35.5m fee according to Sky Sports.

    After a season beset by injuries and loss of form, the player is worth nowhere close to that amount, but his steadfast belief in wanting to play his football at Roma next season is making his stay in east London untenable.

    More Stories / Latest News

    To that end, according to Il Tempo (h/t Forza Roma), Roma’s General Manager, Tiago Pinto, will travel to London next week to have more talks over bringing Scamacca to the Italian capital.

    Pinto may have one ace up his sleeve too. The outlet also note that the Giallorossi are willing to offer central defender, Roger Ibanez, as part of the deal to take Scamacca the other way.

    It still may not be enough to persuade West Ham to do business, but there seems little point in them keeping a player that so obviously doesn’t want to be there and may poison the dressing room in so doing.

    It seems that West Ham could be on the verge of their first transfer capture of the summer window, with Real Betis’ sporting director having flown in for talks with the east London outfit.

    With just three weeks to go until the start of the 2023/24 Premier League season, David Sullivan doesn’t have long to acquire any targets that David Moyes and his staff have identified as potential new signings.

    After having such a brilliant end to last season, the last thing that Moyes needs is to be hamstrung again at the start of a new campaign because of the club’s inability to get deals over the line.

    More Stories / Latest News

    Things are looking positive in one respect, however.

    Back at the end of June, El Chiringuito TV tweeted that the Hammers had made a €20m offer for Betis’ 26-year-old defender, Luiz Felipe.

    Despite being born in Brazil and having represented them at youth level, he now plays for the Italian national side.

    Sevilla ABC note that Betis’ sporting director, Ramon Planes, and CEO, Ramón Alarcon, are in England to close a number of deals, one of which is Luiz Felipe to the Hammers.

    They could have an ulterior motive, however, as the outlet also suggest that they want to bring Pablo Fornals back to La Liga, a move that the player may well be open to given that he’s not played as much as he surely would’ve liked of late.

    Though they’ve been ponderous and inactive in the current transfer window to date, it appears that West Ham might finally be getting their act together in terms of incoming transfers.

    The Hammers looked to have been waiting for the Declan Rice transfer to Arsenal to be concluded before entering the market, but now there’s an obvious race against time as the new Premier League season begins in just over three weeks.

    There are number of areas that the east Londoners need to strengthen in, and to that end, The Guardian (subscription required) are reporting on technical director Tim Steidten’s work behind the scenes to try and drive two transfers to a quick conclusion.

    Currently in Australia, the first-team have enjoyed a decent start to their pre-season under David Moyes, most recently beating a Tottenham side for whom new manager, Ange Postecoglou, was making his debut on the bench.

    If the east Londoners want 2023/24 to be a successful season, however, they are going to have to make a splash in the marketplace.

    More Stories / Latest News

    The Guardian say that the club are looking at Chelsea’s young left-back, Ian Maatsen, as a replacement for the outgoing Aaron Cresswell, whilst AS Monaco’s Youssouf Fofana remains a player of interest and someone who would be the replacement for Rice.

    It remains to be seen whether Steidten can get either deal over the line.

    West Ham United are keen on signing the Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha this summer.

    According to reports, the Hammers are keen on signing the 27-year-old Premier League midfielder and they have launched a £40 million bid to sign the player.

    The Portuguese international has been an instant hit since his move to Fulham and he could prove to be a quality addition to the West Ham midfield as well.

    The Hammers have sanctioned the departure of Declan Rice recently and they will need to bring in a quality replacement.

    Palhinha has already proven himself in the Premier League and he should be able to make an immediate impact at West Ham.

    More Stories / Latest News

    The Hammers will be competing in the Europa League next season and they need to elevate the quality of their squad. Palhinha will add physicality and defensive cover to their midfield.

    The 27-year-old has been one of the first names on the Fulham team sheet and it remains to be seen whether the Londoners are prepared to sell him for the reported £40 million offer from West Ham.
