West Ham ‘to double up on Diouf deal’ as Reguilon bombshell drops
West Ham finally look to be making moves in the transfer window as Graham Potter sets up his squad for next season.
Hammers supporters had been concerned by the lack of transfer activity at the London Stadium in recent weeks.
Jean-Clair Todibo turned his loan deal into a permanent stay in East London, but other than that, the Irons struggled to do any business due to the threat of breaching Profit and Sustainability Rules.
Now, Potter’s side look to be in the clear after making £55million from the sale of Mohammad Kudus.
West Ham look at Sergio Reguilon after Diouf deal
West Ham and Slavia Prague have reached an agreement over the transfer of El Hadji Malick Diouf.
Diouf is closing in on a move to the Hammers and could soon be followed by another wing-back.
According to CaughtOffside (14 July), West Ham are keeping a close eye on former Tottenham left-back Sergio Reguilon.

Reguilon can operate at full-back on both sides and brings a wealth of experience, having played for Atlético Madrid and Manchester United.
The Irons are not without competition for the 28-year-old, with strong interest from clubs in Italy and fellow Premier League sides Bournemouth and Everton.
However, of the three, West Ham are reportedly showing the most enthusiasm to sign Reguilon, who became a free agent after leaving Spurs last month.
With Emerson looking to leave the London Stadium in the coming weeks, Potter’s side will need more than one left-back in, and Reguilon would offer much-needed versatility to the Irons backline.
Kudus sale a blessing for West Ham
West Ham are finally making progress this summer thanks to the sale of Kudus.
The winger was underwhelming last season, and his new side, Tottenham, could be sending the Hammers a gift of their own in Reguilon after not renewing his contract.
Potter’s side could now look to Liverpool’s Harvey Elliott thanks to the money raised so far this summer.
After a worrying start to the window, West Ham look to be finally building a side fit to compete in the Premier League next season.
