Manuel Pellegrini looks to make Edouard Mendy his first signing

Manuel Pellegrini has got his eyes set on signing a goalkeeper as his first task as West Ham boss.

The newly appointed manager is looking to sign Reims goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.

The goalkeeper was one of the players of the season in Ligue 2 as he managed to only concede 22 goals in 34 matches, racking up an impressive 18 clean sheets.

According to the Mirror, the 25-year-old would cost the Hammers around £2 million, which would be cheap for a keeper who has the potential to get even better.

Despite interest from numerous Championship clubs, Mendy and his team believe he is good enough to make a name for himself in the Premier League.

Joe Hart has returned to Manchester City after his loan at the London Stadium and Adrian hasn’t been in the best form when he’s played for the club, leaving Pellegrini with a goalkeeping situation on his hands.
