The final few days of the transfer window could be very interesting for the Hammers.
David Moyes’ side signed Danny Ings from Aston Villa to bolster their forward department in the January window.
Could they look to add more players this month?
Michail Antonio dropped a bombshell on 26 January when he said that he could leave the club in the January window, but the Hammers probably are not looking to sell him.
In case, he leaves, the club could look to bring one more striker before the window ends.
The Hammers spent big in the summer transfer window, and they are unlikely to spend big in the closing stages. However, stance things do happen, and further incomings cannot be ruled out.
West Ham lost Craig Dawson in the January window to Wolves, and Moyes could make an attempt to sign another centre-back, although he does have plenty of options at his disposal.
