Reports today in The Telegraph suggest that West Ham face a very busy end to the transfer window. It’s reported that the powers that be at the Hammers are bracing themselves for the addition of up to four new additions by 6PM tomorrow evening.
Nikica Jelavic is said to be the most imminent of the new signings with Sky Sports reporting that the Hammers have agreed a deal to sign the Croatian International striker. The move would see Jelavic team up once more with his former manager of the Croatian national team; Slaven Bilic, who is very keen on the move, along with Tony Henry who previously bought the Croatian to Everton.
The next addition that could go through is the loan signing of Victor Moses. The winger spent last season on loan at Stoke, and has been told by Chelsea that he is surplus to requirements this season. The deal would see him bought in on loan but reportedly a fee will be agreed to make the move permanent at the end of his loan spell.
The long ongoing saga regarding Alex Song may be finally coming to an end, with the Hammers set to re-sign the Cameroon man on another season-long loan, with worries over his ankle injury which may keep him out until mid October, being preferable. Tottenham are said to be keen on hijacking the deal, but West Ham are still Song’s first choice.
The final possible action we could see is a move for Spurs winger Aaron Lennon who has become a fringe player at White Hart Lane. West Ham are keen on a deal at a relatively cheap price for the winger.
