West Ham Transfer Rumours

22 Jun 2026 16:17:03
Well the players, that are not competing in the World Cup, will be back on July 6th, Monday week,

We will be better placed then to see any absences, not given permission, or not given extra time off, as they have been playing in the cup

The only player giving problems at the moment is Fulkrug, who has told Nuno he’s not coming back. He’s told WH they can rip up his contract; he doesn’t want the money! He wants to be let go.

That may well be, but WH hold his registration


WH want: Small fee from the German clubs or anybody else

WH have paid him up to date June 30th...July 1st wages are halved. WH can still save £5.5. M in wages for the last two years of his contract, save the agro let him go

22 Jun 2026 13:07:59
Chibuike Naiwuwe, CB Trabonspor, WH have enquired about him

Cannot see WH paying the price quoted 30 m euros.

WH see him at 20 m euros. Problem there is Trabonspor have already turned away two offers for that amount.

22 Jun 2026 11:45:02
Todibo! WH receive call from Fenerbache, they ask for a loan, plus option to buy

WH want to sell obviously, they won’t mind a loan with a compulsory purchase, but they won’t want him back at season's end.

Don’t forget we have history with Fenerbache, re Alvarez, they are a little difficult to deal with.

22 Jun 2026 10:17:56
Two Cardiff players fancied. Ruben Colwill atm and Salech. Cf

Nuno's expanding list, he’s going to need more paper!

21 Jun 2026 18:18:41
Anthony Musaba, WH taking interest in Fenerbache winger, decent player for the Championship circa 7/8 m euros?

21 Jun 2026 11:30:15
Neto Gk, on a free? Seen as reserve Gk? He’s 36. Now, another on. Nuno's list, (getting longer).

21 Jun 2026 19:50:56
Why not if Areola leaves. Decent goalie with experience.

20 Jun 2026 20:32:38
Hi Joyful.
I know you tend to keep yourself to player dealings but I wondered if you have any info regarding DOF. Like most, it has seemed like a great week and a real feeling that we are almost rid (or will be soon) of most of the rotten apples at the top. But we are hearing a lot of talk, much of which I’m sure is either true or we hope it is true. But hearing on other sites that we had a done deal for the former Newcastle DOF only to hear that this is not happening.

I don’t want to start the old pessimism again but all the stuff about DOF, player retention, Coach re-hiring, new stadium, new training facilities. None of this is actually set in stone or done deals. We are used to getting our hopes up only for them to be dashed. We’ve generally stopped believing anything coming out of the club. Do you think things are genuinely different this time?

20 Jun 2026 22:21:37
Yup, looks like Nickson joining Wrexham. It may be, just maybe something to do with a Staveley approach? Can't say

Although we were expecting a ton of problems following Sullivan's exit, nothing bad has happened so far, Kretinsky has got a grip.



Kretinsky is no fool, he's in charge now, so we fans have to have faith, things don't always go smoothly, especially for West Ham


Next two weeks are going to tell the story, let's see what happens.

21 Jun 2026 09:57:44
One week to go until fixtures are announced and still no Director of Football. Nickson off to Wrexham, so who next, I wonder.

{Ed001's Note - you have signed that Venezuelan/Colombian lad though, Keiber Lamadrid, even without one. I wonder who decided it then without a DoF?}

21 Jun 2026 11:14:39
Kerim Verani, Mark Noble, Nuno, 950k gamble! It was ok'd by Kretinsky.

21 Jun 2026 11:59:01
Great Question Ed001! Who is making these decisions, KREZYNSKI?

Surely he is far too busy to be involved in player transfers?

{Ed001's Note - I wish I knew the answer mate.}

21 Jun 2026 15:44:24
I've given the answer.

20 Jun 2026 17:52:48
Summerville, Arsenal have now asked to be informed of the actual amount WH need for transfer

They have been told, as others have, £55 m.

20 Jun 2026 20:31:16
Price just went up. 🤣

20 Jun 2026 13:51:26
Reiss Nelson, whilst the player is looking around for the best deal he can get, and would prefer to stay in the Premier, he’s not opposed to come to WH

Arsenal don’t wish to extend his contract, which expires this coming season, so don’t want to loan but want to sell

It’s in thoughts he is a Summerville replacement for the Championship. Another on Nuno's list.

21 Jun 2026 09:53:07
If nothing else, squad player.

20 Jun 2026 12:08:59
Transfer business, this is NOT speculation. Nuno is there and looking through players he might want, should they be available.

His problem is who is staying; this will be cleared up soon.



Itks saying they can’t get hold of, or can’t get an answer, from WH is silly talk.

Kretinsky, who is presently in charge, has spoken to any club, or returned e-mail, to interested parties on our players.

He is sticking to valuations.

The actual bids were posted yesterday, and, as far as he is concerned, do not match those values.


His attitude is there is no point wasting time with clubs who want to pay far less than his target.


Far different scenario than Sullivan, who by now would have sold the whole squad for flumpence.


Tottenham, who said they can’t get through, have made no bids for any player as of last night.

20 Jun 2026 09:58:14
Isidor, sticking point, WH not looking to buy the player, loan or loan to buy maybe?

Sunderland want to sell, first and foremost. Looks like the player is happy to come to WH

One of a few options we shall see.

20 Jun 2026 10:24:25
I am not sure why this player would be of interest. 13 goals in 46 Champ appearances, and 6 in 35 in the Prem. Hardly prolific. Even Pablo would probably score 13 goals in the Champ!

20 Jun 2026 10:36:58
Agreed! The problem here for me is West Ham getting caught between two stools.
Tatty, will he stay? Pablo? West Ham need to splash a few quid up front if our current players go.
West Ham need a proven Championship scorer like Vipotnik up front to fire us back to the Premiership.


Cheap options will leave us lacking. You can't just sell, we have to get a few players in that are needed. Full stop.

20 Jun 2026 09:48:45
Loads of queries. On this as far as I know Capital Water will be on front of shirts, this season, and again, as far as I know, the name New Balance will be displayed somewhere on the kit.

20 Jun 2026 10:17:05
Someone else mentioned this. Capital Water are a small company, are you sure? Maybe on the sleeves, but surely not on the front of the matchday shirts.

20 Jun 2026 11:51:43
There may be some confusion, maybe I'm confused. Prior to the end of last season, some kind of deal was done with Capital Water Treatment, and that would be the name on the shirt front.

It's not a big sponsorship, obviously.

Maybe Kretinsky will undo the agreement and find something better, or maybe have nothing at all, which most fans would prefer.

As far as I know, that's where we are presently; I've heard nothing different.

19 Jun 2026 19:15:18
Anyone know what's going on with Steve Nickson or anybody for our DofF vacancy?

19 Jun 2026 21:01:53
We will know next week, if he's not announced by next Friday, he's not coming, but I fancy he will.

20 Jun 2026 08:32:58
Thanks, Joyful, because until we get one, who is doing the transfer business, and as we've said before, we need to get a move on.

20 Jun 2026 10:18:30
No one is doing transfer business, that is why nothing has happened. All the talk of us signing this player or selling that player is pure speculation.

20 Jun 2026 11:27:49
Clock is ticking.

20 Jun 2026 11:53:14
I think the window has only just opened, and it's difficult buying when we are not certain who is leaving.
We also need to see if all the recent really good mood music coming out of the club is genuine and not the same old empty promises just coming from a different person. I have to say I'm hopeful.

19 Jun 2026 12:34:47
Brighton. Have just re-offered Evan Ferguson to WH, on loan.

Nuno, don’t even think about it, I’m sure most WH fans would agree?

19 Jun 2026 14:37:51
Pay to play?

19 Jun 2026 15:28:18
We are in the Championship now, so could suit him better, who knows. 🤷

19 Jun 2026 12:30:53
More silly talk c, mon. Long post sorry!

Fernandes agent was informed more than two weeks back, by Kretinsky himself, of the offer that would have to be made, before WH would. Consider a sale that was £85 m, Man United offered £60 m, not even considered
SO far apart, from talk NO other bids have been received, so any talk that Spurs, Madrid, Arsenal Can't talk to WH is just silly, if they want to make a. Bid they can do so, if they can't reach Kretinsky. Send an e- mail, the majority of. Clubs still do, and it will be answered


United are well short of the Summerville valuation as well, they and Roma, as yet are the only bidders

If Kretinsky or another party put money in, then the need to sell players, gets reviewed and the share. Value diluted


Of course some players may want premiership football, or go abroad, that's another story, but what's becoming clear, is that WH are not going to take silly offers for players


Kante and. Magassa, tons of interest in these two. until WH made a realistic price, circa £15 m, since then it's all gone quiet

Marseille thought they where going
to buy both for that money! Not with Kretinsky your not

19 Jun 2026 13:40:11
About time we took a stand and stuck to our guns.

The message is simple. Pay up or shut up.

19 Jun 2026 14:26:34
Hopefully some of these players don't try to force moves through, as they seem to be able to do these days. If that happens, we won't get the right fee anyway. Personally, I think we would be very lucky to get 70 rather than 85 mill for Fernandes and 40 for Summerville.

19 Jun 2026 19:07:04
We have been terrible at selling players under Sullivan. Glad we're finally showing some resolve, not selling players on the cheap.

Hard to say no to Fernandes going to a Champions League club. It only takes one of those clubs to get close to the 85m, then we will see who's serious. I'd be tempted to say to all of them, if we don't get the asking price, you're staying. Kick up a fuss, refuse to play, then dock wages, stick them in the reserves.

See if they like that better than playing in the Championship where they took us. Harsh on some of them, and risky, but it could pay off. Will the likes of Summerville, Fernandes, refuse to play? Magassa/Kante, I think a season in the Championship would be good for their development.

As for Summerville, I think he will keep impressing at the World Cup. Price should keep rising.
