Hammers kill Holland rumours

West Ham see under 23 Nathan Holland as very much part of the club’s future despite regular rumours that he could be on his way from the club.

The latest speculation is that Sheffield Wednesday – currently 12th in the Championship – see him as a possible target in the summer.

Nathan is enjoying a successful loan spell at Oxford united and has helped lift them into seventh place in League One just outside the play off zone. He has made nine League appearances and scored three times.

The Hammers believe he is getting exactly the experience he requires with the club which knocked them out of the EFL Cup and continue to see his future at the London Stadium.

However, it may be reasonable to assume that with a number of wingers available to the Hammers there could come a position where a bid might be acceptable.

A Hammers insider told us by e mail: We seem him part of our first team long term, I  can’t see Sheff Wed bidding anywhere near our valuation anyway.”
