As we are all aware, West Ham  faces a significant rebuild this summer, with a core group of players potentially leaving and the squad boasting the joint-smallest and second-oldest personnel in the Premier League and right-back Vladimir Coufal finds himself at the centre of all this

While Coufal has one year remaining on his contract, negotiations for an extension haven’t yielded results due to disagreements over wages. Inevitably this has opened the door for transfer speculation.

Coufal’s recent meeting with his agent in London has fueled rumours of a potential move away from the London Stadium. While the purpose of the meeting remains unknown, it has coincided with reported interest from other clubs.

Despite needing a replacement for the departing Ben Johnson, Coufal might not be considered the long-term solution at right-back. The club might be looking for an upgrade at the position.

Coufal still remains a valuable player, and West Ham might see some value in retaining him with competition potentially motivating him to improve. However, the wage dispute and potential transfer interest make his future uncertain.

    Should try to bring Ashby back … one of our own.

    Surely we can’t lose TWO right (wing) backs! It’s a bit like one step forward and two steps back. I hope we are not going to continue with the dithering that David Moyes is famous for.
