Slaven Bilic eyeing player from a former club

West Ham manager Slaven Bilic is considering a move for one of his former players, according to The Mirror.

Kerim Frei, an ex-Fulham player, is reportedly on Bilic’s radar as he looks to put plans in place ahead of the January transfer window.

The Turkish winger could be available for a very reasonable £3m.

The Hammers are currently struggling at the foot of the Premier League table, with their win against Crystal Palace last weekend just their second of the campaign.

They have now clambered out of the relegation zone because of those three points, but it still appears like it could be long season for Bilic and his side.

Frei made his debut at Fulham aged just 17, but since then his career hasn’t really gone to plan.

He made good impressions under Bilic whilst the Croat managed at Besiktas, but so far this season, he’s had minimal impact.

With pressure mounting for West Ham to remain in the Premier League, not least due to the fact they’ve just moved to a plush new home, spending money in January is likely to try and ensure that target happens.
