West Ham ‘admire’ EFL man and respond to £20m transfer bid

West Ham United have made two signings since the end of last season as they prepare for another campaign under David Moyes.

The Hammers have delved into the transfer market to sign defender Nayef Aguerd from Rennes and goalkeeper Alphonse Areola from PSG on a permanent basis.

More arrivals are expected and the club has been linked with various names over recent times.

They start their pre-season friendlies on Friday against Swiss top flight outfit Servette.

Here is a look at all the latest news surrounding the club today.

McNeil on radar

West Ham are keen on Burnley winger Dwight O’Neil along with Crystal Palace.

The winger is facing an uncertain future at Turf Moor at the moment following the Clarets’ relegation to the Championship.

He still has two years left on his contract with the Lancashire outfit but The Sun claim Moyes’ side ‘admire’ him and could throw him a Premier League lifeline.

Bid for Belgian star rebuffed

The Hammers have had a bid rejected for Lille midfielder Amadou Onana.

He has been identified as a potential addition in this transfer window but the club will have to fork out more money if they are to bring him to the London Stadium.

The Athletic report his current club have rebuffed West Ham’s €23 million offer.

The Belgium international only made the move to France last year after impressing in the German second tier with Hamburg.

Rivals join chase for attacker

Newcastle United have joined the race to land Chelsea attacker Armando Broja.

The youngster spent last season on loan at Southampton and scored nine goals in all competitions.

West Ham are interested but Sky Sports now report that Eddie Howe’s side have entered the running.
