All four of Moyes’ summer signings have had strong debuts for their careers in East London, and the Hammers have had a strong start to the 2023–24 season.
However, a lot more work needs to be done. There is still plenty of deadwood that needs shipping out over the next couple of transfer windows.
And there are apparently plenty of players up for sale at the London Stadium…
The potential sale of seven West Ham players during the January transfer window
Claret and Hugh claim that Pablo Fornals, Danny Ings, Maxwel Cornet, Thilo Kehrer, Aaron Cresswell and Ben Johnson could all be moved on this winter.
In addition to those six, it is claimed that a ‘massive offer could come in from Saudi Arabia for Aguerd’.
It goes without saying that West Ham won’t offload all seven of those players in January. To raise money for Moyes to make a move on the transfer market, I could absolutely see Fornals, Cornet, and Ings being sold on.
I wouldn’t be shocked in the slightest if Said Benrahma was also sold. The accusations that the club must sell in order to buy further support my prediction that the upcoming January transfer window would be hectic for the Hammers.
West Ham need to sign a top-class striker, a left-back and a right-back in the January window in my opinion, if we are to make a push for the Champions League.
It has been suggested that Moyes wants to bring a number nine to the London Stadium to take over from Michail Antonio.
But it’s still unclear whether the Scot will be able to improve his team in any way in January.
