West Ham news round-up: Nuno Espirito Santo eyes reunion as enquiry is made for Tottenham star
West Ham have begun preparations for the upcoming January transfer window as they look to avoid relegation.
Reinforcements are desperately needed at the London Stadium, particularly in attack, if the Hammers are to survive the drop.
Thankfully, Nuno Espirito Santo is set to be awarded funds in January at West Ham to add needed quality.
With rumours already rife, West Ham Zone has provided an update on all of the latest news below.
West Ham eyeing Adama Traore transfer
Adama Traore is one of the Premier League’s most well-known players.
Possessing excellent pace and strength, the winger is currently at Fulham, although he is struggling for minutes at present, and his contract is set to expire next summer.
Therefore, Traore is now linked with a move to West Ham, with a potential January deal being mooted by Sky Sports.
It would allow Nuno to reunite with the winger, with the two working together at Wolves for many years.

West Ham make Manor Soloman enquiry
Another attacker linked to West Ham is Manor Solomon.
The Spurs star is currently out on loan to Villarreal, but this has not been a success, with the former Leeds United man reportedly struggling to settle in Spain.
As a result, he has requested to be recalled in January, which has opened a potential route for the Hammers.
Reports claim that West Ham have now enquired about Solomon’s availability in January ahead of a potential move.
Niclas Fullkrug won’t be allowed to leave without replacement striker
On the departure front, it looks likely that Niclas Fullkrug will leave in January.
The German has not found form since his move to the London Stadium, and has consistently struggled with injuries.
Now, it is expected that the striker will move on as Nuno looks to bring in his own players.
However, reports have suggested that West Ham will not allow Fullkrug to leave until a replacement is brought in.
