Transfer rumours and speculation to take us through to summer.

alderz

Honestly, I don’t have a problem with that. I’d hope it would be £3m + 40% of any future deal or something like that, though. He’s obviously not going to make it here, and his 20k pw would be better spent elsewhere.

I wanted it to work so bad, but we all know it won’t.

What happend to the 8-10 m we kept hearing about

alderz

None of the rumours (including this one) have ever been substantiated, so just us seeing it written down isn’t ever enough to go on.

OR

He’s been in a very poorly performing defence it wouldn’t shock me if his valuation had dropped a lot.

I don't know. Why not see if the people/media who claimed 8-10m was on offer have any explanation....

... or, indeed, any foundation at all for those figures?

It was on sky but they do get things wrong though, my original post of the figure was meant really to how much is alleged stock had fallen in a short space of time

so plucked off KUMB but is a breakdown of Exwhuemployees first batch of Transfer speculation.



- Willy Caballero as the short term new back-up Keeper should he leave Chelsea on a free this summer;

- Aaron Mooy another midfileder being looked at.

- He mentioned we may target at least 1 English player as we want to boost the homegrown quota. Hence why Mooy was on the list, as even though he is Australian I believe he did come through an English academy (correct me if I am wrong);

- Franck Kessie has become a target. He specifically said to keep an eye on that one so that 'could' be one to watch;

- Guillermo Maripán is likely to be the centre half we get;

- Marega is a target but is behind Gomez and Mitrovic;

- He is still making clear Gomez is the main target ahead of Mitrovic;

- We are interested in signing in Jack Grealish, and we are hoping that Aston Villa do not get promoted, as it would keep his value down a little bit;

- Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos is still being watched by the club ahead of the summer;

- Samir Nasri was offered a reduced pay-as-you-play deal, but he feels he could earn more elsewhere.
He has also been late to training on a regular basis for the past few weeks.

- The club could look to move Aaron Cresswell on this summer;

- Marko Arnautovic is likely to stay at West Ham this summer;

- Oxford is set to join Ausberg;

- Lanzini has been offered new deal at WHU but has been slow to accept.

- The club have looked at potentially signing Adrian Rabiot, but know that a deal is very unlikely due to a load of other clubs being interested in him;

- Overall we want a : Back-up keeper, centre half, left back, at least 1 midfileder, 2 strikers. But the 2nd striker depends on if we lose Hernandez;

- Joe Powell is set to be offered a new deal with the club;

- Rangers, Real Betis, Crystal Palace and a couple of teams from Portugal have already shown interest in signing Adrian.

I think they can keep Higuain because of the loan deal, so can only see one of them staying, personally

I was just reading about LoftusCheek, and in the background to the article it said Chelsea weren't going to trigger his loan->permanent deal nor were they going to extend the loan.

Expat_Hammer

Isn't Loftus Cheat out for all of next season after tearing his ligaments in the US of A

Pearces_Left_Foot

Reports from Portugal that the deal for Marega is as good as done terms agreed. I will believe it when I see him in a West Ham shirt

I read this today on "hammers news"

It wasn't until i read it again that i saw this was actually reported in the sun newspaper. :doh:

Yeoldhammer

I hope not :doh:

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Is marega a lone striker? Or is he more of a second striker / winger

Looks like mainly a CF but can play on left or right

The only way to keep Carroll, would be on a play and Pay contract.

Giant_Hammer

I was speaking to a fellow whu fan last night who told me that he was speaking to another fan supposedly itk (I know I know) and that AC has already cleared his locker, said goodbye to the players and staff and left the club very quietly.
Probably rubbish but I thought I'd share it with you all anyway. :hmm:

Pearces_Left_Foot

C&H saying the Carroll story is rubbish
