Fabianski extended his West Ham contract in December and committed his future to the club until 2025. At 39 years old, he's a great experienced figure to have in the squad and still has enough quality to come into the side when needed.placeholder image

West Ham will be under new management next season with a new-look squad likely too.

It's set to be a summer of change at West Ham this season as David Moyes departs the club. Former Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui is set to be announced as his replacement this week.

The Spaniard quit his last post due to transfer disagreements and seems likely to want an influence over the Hammers' squad from the off this summer. The London club's defence is ageing while there is still the matter of finding a Declan Rice replacement after Kalvin Phillips' loan spell failed to reach expectations.

There's also the matter of finding an added goal threat with links to Brentford striker Ivan Toney. Any incomings will, of course, have to be offset with outgoings and LondonWorld looks at the West Ham first team squad to see how each player has done this season and what the future may hold.

Superb start to the season perhaps faded as time went on. There's no doubting the midfielder's quality and it'll be interesting to see what Lopetegui can get out of the free-kick specialist.

Paqueta looks set to be the centre of transfer speculation once again this summer. Man City seem the most likely suitors and, as important as he is to the club, a reported £85 million would be hard to turn down. The Hammers have options in attacking midfield and that money could perhaps be better invested elsewhere.

Will return to Manchester City at the end of an underwhelming loan spell. West Ham had been linked with making the move permanent but that now seems very unlikely.

Has been on loan at Southampton this season and The Athletic reports that the south coast club are keen to make that deal permanent. His chances of slotting into the Hammers side under Lopetegui seem unlikely so that's a deal that would perhaps make sense for West Ham.
