West Ham United manager Julen Lopetegui would have had a big wake-up call when watching the Euros last night. Julen Lopetegui faces a monumental task, if he is to get West Ham back inside the European places this season. Getting his transfer business done and dusted as soon as possible will be crucial for Lopetegui, especially considering the difficult start the Hammers have been handed after the 2024/25 Premier League fixtures were released. Aside from signing a proven centre-forward, the Spaniard should be prioritising strengthening his back-line. The likes of Kurt Zouma need upgrading upon ...

West Ham United centre-back Kurt Zouma could well be finished at the London Stadium now. Kurt Zouma joined West Ham from Chelsea back in the summer of 2021 for around £30 million (Daily Mail), and he made a strong start to his Hammers career. However, he has regressed badly from a physical perspective over the past year or so, and West Ham are apparently prepared to listen to offers for the club captain this summer. That’s no surprise at all. Zouma was woeful for the Hammers last season, and did not live up to the job of being club captain. The Frenchman often shied away from the media, and wa...

Have West Ham fans been fed a £100m red herring after some extremely exciting developments in the transfer market over the last week? That’s the question Hammers News is asking today after a steady stream of news regarding West Ham’s transfer plans. It’s been the worst kept secret in football that West Ham need to spend big and spend well this summer. Technical director Tim Steidten has taken full control of West Ham’s recruitment. Julen Lopetegui has been appointed with the title of head coach rather than manager for that very reason. The Spaniard is having an input on West Ham’s transfer pla...

West Ham united could seal a double deal worth £57 million this summer, and it would drastically improve us. Julen Lopetegui has plenty of work to do this summer, if he is to guide West Ham back into European competition for next season. The Spaniard is plotting a big overhaul at the London Stadium this summer, and is targeting at least six new signings. Lopetegui is said to be aiming to complete the majority of his business by the time our pre-season campaign begins on July 20th. One of the key areas where the 57-year-old Hammers boss needs to strengthen is his central defensive department. K...

There is an elephant in the room about imminent West Ham signing Luis Guilherme and it simply must be addressed. Two weeks ago the vast majority of West Ham fans had never heard of Luis Guilherme. In fact it is highly likely that most journalists covering Premier League and European football – if they’re honest – won’t have heard of the man West Ham are about to sign for around £25m either. Of course those who are experts in South American football may well have had an idea about the clearly talented teenager. But the sudden links to the Palmeiras talent had most Hammers fans, including yours ...

West Ham United winger Maxwel Cornet has endured a torrid time at the London Stadium over the past 22 months. Maxwel Cornet has played just 957 minutes of football for West Ham, since joining us from Burnley just under two years ago (Transfermarkt). West Ham actually tried to sell the 27-year-old in the January window, but he remained at the London Stadium in the end. The fact that the Hammers kept him at the club made absolutely no sense in the end, because he hardly played at all. There was no rhyme or reason to David Moyes’s steadfast refusal to play Cornet – it just seemed like the Scot di...

Are West Ham behind a mystery bid from a Premier League club for a rapid German forward who’s been put up for sale? When it comes to knowledge of the German market, clubs will be hard pressed to outwit West Ham. German technical director Tim Steidten is now in full control of recruitment for the Hammers. Just as he was at Bayer Leverkusen – and look how that worked out for them. Steidten is certainly not playing around when it comes to West Ham’s transfer activity for the summer window. Although it seems to have hit a late snag, the Hammers are believed to be close to completing a deal to sign...

West Ham United are said to be closing in on deals to sign Brazilian duo Fabricio Bruno and Wesley Gassova. Bruno, 28, is thought to be very close to joining the Hammers from Flamengo, whilst West Ham are in continual talks with Corinthians over a deal for Wesley. Wesley, an electrifying left winger, will apparently set the Hammers back around £21 million (Daily Mail). And centre-back Bruno will cost us around £13 million according to various different reports. New West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui has so much work to do with the squad left behind by the recently departed David Moyes. The Spaniard...

New West Ham United manager Julen Lopetegui must sell four players in particular this summer. Julen Lopetegui was officially announced as the new West Ham boss yesterday, and Director of Football Tim Steidten told the fans just how excited we should all be about the appointment of the Spaniard. Lopetegui, 57, apparently has big plans to shake things up at the London Stadium, and has already held high level meetings with Steidten about his potential transfer targets for the summer. David Moyes has left behind a squad that is in urgent need of fixing. It’s extremely unbalanced, with no natural l...

West Ham United must wire £60m to Chelsea for duo while they’re managerless and Todd Boehly may just accept it. There is a lot of talk in West Ham circles that David Sullivan should have waited before making Julen Lopetegui the club’s new manager. Especially when Mauricio Pochettino – a reported former Hammers target – sensationally left Chelsea last night. Having turned the Blues around in 2024 and with the future looking bright, Pochettino looked set to stay at Chelsea. But the Stamford Bridge club are like a box of frogs since Todd Boehly – who was also previously linked with a West Ham tak...
