In this latest West Ham update, the injury crisis has hit the squad hard, leaving the Hammers in urgent need of January signings. The ongoing speculation about potential recruits has fuelled discussions about who is at the helm of transfers at the club.
Reports suggest that Director of Football Tim Steidten is eyeing Dutch international Steven Bergwijn from Ajax, while West Ham manager David Moyes favours the acquisition of Sunderland winger Jack Clarke.
With key players like Jarrod Bowen, Michail Antonio, and Lucas Paqueta currently sidelined due to injuries, the attacking options for the Hammers are severely depleted. The absence of Mohammed Kudus, away on international duty for the African Cup of Nations (AFCON), adds to the challenges.
In light of these circumstances, it becomes crucial for West Ham to secure the immediate signing of an attacker. The reserve options, including Said Benrahma, Maxwel Cornet, Danny Ings, and Pablo Fornals, have struggled to find the net, emphasizing the pressing need for reinforcements.
As the transfer window unfolds, the identity of the incoming player will likely reveal who holds the reins in the decision-making process—Moyes or Steidten. Stay tuned for updates on West Ham's transfer moves!
