ExWHUemployee: West Ham United have spoken to numerous free agent targets, no deals yet agreed
West Ham United have already spoken to numerous summer targets, according to ExWHUemployee.
The reliable source has insisted that the free-agent market will likely be exploited across the upcoming window.
It is shared that no deals have yet been agreed upon, and no one has said they will join the club as of yet.
Writing on the West Ham Way Patreon page, Ex shared the latest state of play regarding transfers at the London Stadium.
“As we have covered many times on the podcast the free transfer market will be exploited this summer with a number of targets already having been spoken to, although no player has agreed to join at this point,” he wrote.
Talks underway.
This is smart, and after numerous windows failing to result in numerous transfers, David Moyes will want results.
Holding talks already will hopefully get some deals in place ahead of the window, and ones that can be confirmed in the early weeks.
That will then give the new signings time to get used to their new surroundings and the squad throughout pre-season.
GSB as well as Daniel Kretinsky also need to make money available too for some big deals, they can’t just utilise this market.
Free agents help with squad depth, something we have struggled with, but they don’t bring in huge game-changers.
You have to spend the money for them, and hopefully, they do that too with the likes of Leeds duo Raphinha and Kalvin Phillips already mentioned.
Midfield, a new striker and the goalkeeper scenario all need looking at, you simply cannot do that with the free-agent market alone.
