West Ham FC Rumours

31 Jan 2024 11:03:06
Apparently Jonathan Clauss has been offered to us and if its true we should be all over this as we desperatley need a decent RB and he is so much better than coufal. Perhaps ED might know a little more on this.

{Ed002's Note - Jonathan Clauss (RB) Bayern Munich enquired but the player does not want to be cover only. Galatasaray have a declared interest in taking him to replace Sacha Boey. Marseille have made clear to his agents that he is available to be sold this month and they are hawking the 31 year old around.}

31 Jan 2024 14:01:58
As always Ed002, your insightful and accurate updates throw much appreciated clarity on a very foggy confused January transfer window. Thanks again Ed

{Ed002's Note - You are welcome.}

Wolves are set to succeed where West Ham failed by signing Tim Steidten striker target Yuri Alberto it has emerged (we are useless)

30 Jan 2024 17:54:27
And knowing we need a striker, we now turn our attention to Le Havre CB Etienne Kinkoue? IS IT ME or have we lost the plot

30 Jan 2024 23:03:02
No point in getting a striker Moyes doesn't know how to use them.

Never heard of the guy but if he's a young talent steidten has identified then I'm all for it, that being said haven't seen any credible sources report this one yet.

31 Jan 2024 06:26:53
The more worrying thing is the rumour that Liverpool are seriously interested in Tim Steidten. With Sullivan dithering between backing Moyes or Steidten, I wouldn’t be surprised if Steidten says “F*ck it, I’m off! ” Now that would be a disaster, Sullivan made.

31 Jan 2024 07:47:00
Yeah agree Tin. We have made some calamitous decisions but if we lose Tim Steidten to liverpool it would be a disaster. If let loose their is a reson why the guys is called "The PEARL" its just that Sullivan brought him in and he hasn't been allowed to do his job because of MOYES. Seasons end, Moyes runs out his contract, TS stays, we get a good manager who actually listens to TS and brings youth through instead of selling them all.

I'm afraid our owners have tried to pull thw ool over our eyes for far too long and typically we all take it and move on. About time Sullivan cashed in his chips and went somewhere else

31 Jan 2024 11:30:32
Ideally, I’d like to see Sullivan driving Moyes’ taxi on a one-way journey.

31 Jan 2024 11:45:39
Ahhhhhhhh and of course its all now starting to come to light. KLOPP leaving and Liverpool targetting XABI ALONSO. What better way of getting Alonso but by bringing TIM STEIDTEN to Anfield aswell. All makes perfect sense and I'll bet a fair amount of money he goes and Moyes is offered a new contract

31 Jan 2024 12:03:57
You just know we'll end up keeping Moyes and losing Steiden.

31 Jan 2024 13:03:13
Plain as the nose on your face. WHU will never amount to anything with Sullivan in charge. We had the chance of a lifetime with Tim Steidten. Moyes should have been shown the door months ago, and we should have forged ahead with TS the driving force. I fear we have missed the boat. Hope I'm wrong.

31 Jan 2024 14:20:01
This is all typical west ham under the clowns we have running the club.

02 Feb 2024 10:15:30
Tinny sorry I can't agree with you that Moyes should have gone months ago it should have been years ago

02 Feb 2024 15:01:44
To top it all, Fulham get Broja on loan and says he’s delighted and can’t wait to get started to show the fans what he can do! What a f——- joke that is, not that players should automatically choose us but why not join us, can only be the type of defensive Football we play each and every week plus a Manager like Moyes, that’s all I can think! So pleased I’m an armchair watcher only and not travelling to sit through that lot of tripe that Moyes and Sullivan has turned this club into! ⚒⚒⚒⚒⚒

30 Jan 2024 16:41:02
Brighton in for Osman now. 20m+3. Where there is a Will there is a way and Unfortunately we don't have the will.

30 Jan 2024 17:21:53
We are all over the show, bid just made for MAKOUDI AEK C/ half, looks like we will finish up with one signing, fans are getting fed up , with all this transfer committee business, just leave it to Steidten that’s what he’s there for, we have far too much competition for this dithering about, and it would be suicidal. To let players go with this thin squad, we tried, BUT looks the likely riposte

31 Jan 2024 17:51:45
It's all BS. What would have happened if we had been struggling?

26 Feb 2024 11:26:57
The above is now rhetorical, as we are clearly now stuggling. Largley in the wake of the transfer window, where we lost Benny and Fornals and gained a past it CDM.

06 Apr 2024 17:31:25
Well, we are level on points with Man Utd now, but this doesn't nullify the fact the squad needs some considerable strengthening this window coming.

29 Jan 2024 18:04:28
Jota would be a great signing and I'd be happy with him and Phillips in this window . COYI

{Ed002's Note - Jota (LW) West Ham and Crystal Palace are trying to find a way to end the nightmare the player is having not being eligible to play for Al-Ittihad. There are issues to resolve - a loan would require his full wages to be paid and simply moves the issue down the line. A fee to recover the €30M they paid celtic for him and reduced wages and resolution of a tax issue would please everyone and allow him to be purchased.}

29 Jan 2024 20:53:10
Looks like a 13th bid going in for Carlos Bacca!

30 Jan 2024 14:53:56
Leaving it very late for jota deal

{Ed002's Note - There are a couple of days to go.}

30 Jan 2024 16:29:49
A move for Al Ittihad star Jota to West Ham United is very unlikely this month due to tax issues so BANG goes another one! Are we counting how many times this happens?

29 Jan 2024 14:14:26
Spurs are now considering a move for Nordsjælland winger Ibrahim Osman if he does not join West Ham this month.
Monaco, Wolfsburg, Gladbach and Bologna are also weighing up a move for Osman

29 Jan 2024 20:52:15
Or not

29 Jan 2024 12:52:09
JOTA Deal agreed and flying in for medical APPARENTLY. Not getting my hopes up

28 Jan 2024 16:02:10
Ibrahim Osman deal collapses amid 'total chaos' and controversy by some rogue agent apparently? Only in the world if west ham

29 Jan 2024 07:58:33
Yep it seems West Ham United transfer chase of Ibrahim Osman deal colla[sed overnight. We are still chasing JOTA but again don;t hold your breath. This is West ham

29 Jan 2024 19:04:08
Sulli being tight, agents and club being greedy add into the mix Barry Silkman i'm not surpsied it collapsed.

Have a feeling its not the last we've heard of it but demands will have to be lowered.

24 Jan 2024 12:20:22
Ed002 is it true we are interested in jhon duran

{Ed002's Note - A request for a loan was submitted, so yes.}

24 Jan 2024 16:42:00
£13m Boulaye Dia is reportedly waiting by the phone for a call from West Ham going into last week of window. I reckon he is ideal for us

25 Jan 2024 07:07:28
Guess he will be waiting a long time because it seems Moyes has changed Tac this window and no longer wants a striker

25 Jan 2024 01:46:52
Ed, Looks like chelsea will get him, could that mean we can get broja?

{Ed002's Note - It is unrelated but Broja is available and there is a lot of interest in him - including from West Ham.}

25 Jan 2024 15:37:49
Apparently we are very close to OSMAN and SUGARAWA.⚒⚒⚒

28 Jan 2024 17:48:21
West Ham United don't believe that FC Nordsjaelland winger Ibrahim Osman will make an instant impact and as such are unwilling to meet his asking price despite 2 wasted weeks of talks?

23 Jan 2024 14:41:16
Philips done deal loan till June option to buy

23 Jan 2024 17:49:51
So who does he replace? Soucek? That would give us midfield 3 of alvarez, ward prowse and Phillips.not bad but, we need full backs, a left winger cause benrahma is leaving and a striker!

23 Jan 2024 20:55:36
Moyes won't drop Soucek. It'll be the Steiden choice Alvarez who's for the chop.

23 Jan 2024 21:06:48
We don't really need a left winger, just play Cornet in his actual position. For all the pelters he gets from the fans, myself included the poor bloke's only ever been played once in his proper LW position in the PL.

25 Jan 2024 15:40:36
If we drop ALVAREZ then it's crazy as if your telling me he ain't better than SOUCEK then DD is totally lost the plot.⚒⚒⚒

26 Jan 2024 17:36:03
Personally i am very pleased with the Phillips loan deal. He is exactly the player we need alongside Alvarez AND he can fill in for Alvarez when missing. Currently we have nobody to replace Alvarez when he is missing (and it shows when he is gone), we all see Soucek and Prowse cannot do it, and this guy can do it as well as being Alvarez partner in CM. Can pick a great ball for counter attacks as well, which Souceck is not so great at. All round a VERY good bit of business, and the guys is such a nice character, a player we can really get behind and personally i hope he signs permanently, although £40m for a soon to be 29 year old is a lot!
Yes we still need a LM, ST and a backup LB. I like the look of this Osimen that we are linked with. let's be honest he will not start as Paqueta will be our LM for the forseable, but it gives Moyes options, which is why i actually think a LM is more important than a ST at the moment IMO

23 Jan 2024 13:35:07
Talksport evidently reporting Trevor Chalobah from Chelsea for £25m

24 Jan 2024 20:54:55
Would be a fantastic signing for us. Been a bit unlucky at Chelsea I reckon and he does have his fair share of admirers within the Chelsea fans ranks.

£25M is a very fair price and we should be all over it. We won't but we should be.
