Hammers open to offers for these players

West Ham will entertain offers for a number of first team players if their valuations are met in January. The Hammers who could be available at the right price include Andy Carroll, Diafra Sakho, Andre Ayew and Javier Hernandez.

Obviously, they all wouldn’t be allowed to leave at the same time unless suitable replacements could be found. It is also believed the club would not stand in the way of Sam Byram, Jose Fonte or James Collins if offers came in.

Everyone knows you don’t get good value in January but that works both ways with desperate clubs close to the relegation zone prepared to take gambles and pay big prices for players who they think can get them further up the table.
