David Moyes has admitted that another West Ham player could leave the club before the transfer window closes on Wednesday.
Asked whether anyone else could follow Sakho out the door Moyes answered:“Possibly. You know the way football is, we have had offers from clubs and whether those offers improve then it might make things look like it but other than that, we are getting to the end and we’ll be glad when it’s offer.”
That player is said to be Andre Ayew and the improved offer is expected to come from his former club Swansea City.
Tonight Sky reports claim that West Ham has turned down a bid of £18m and are holding out for £20m adding that West Ham are tonight asking for Swansea midfielder Ki Sung-Yueng to be included in a swap deal for Andre Ayew.
Although Ayew would be allowed to leave if his valuation is met West Ham would want to be confident that could guarantee a replacement before the deadline closes.
I’m ok with this but if going to help a rival relegation rival should get player in return. I have no issue w Ayew but doesn’t seems to be in plans but does have a knack for goals & w our thin squad.
Take £15m & Ki who only has 6mo left. He has height & is tidy passer rather him then spend £20m on Schneiderlin. He is 29 so would only do a 2 year deal but is type of player Moyes likes w PL experience & would want him coming this way & Smolov or another CF coming this way too.
Sean Mad Smolov needs convincing he def wants move to PL & Russian window just opened on 28th but we close tomo night & has to fancy is chances for first team. I like him & from what Ives seen & heard is similar mould to Arnie has height & pace very good w both feet & head. So very rounded CF & the height Moyes likes.
Is Smolov on his way?.
He needs convincing
Fair enough do the deal subject to us signing a replacement, with the wages he is on should be a no brainer.
