Albian Ajeti only joined West Ham United from Basel this summer for £8million but Manuel Pellegrini may have already seen enough of him.
According to Claret & Hugh, Pellegrini is already preparing to sanction a shock departure in January.
The Switzerland international has made just six appearances for West Ham and is yet to score or assist a goal in claret and blue.
It hasn’t seemed like Pellegrini trusts one of his most recent signings to provide goals, giving him just 91 minutes of action in the Premier League this season.

The Chilean boss may simply just not rate Ajeti, which seems baffling considering the short amount of time there’s been since he decided to sign him.
Time could be running out for the 22-year-old to show a glimpse of promise but it’s hard to do so when he’s coming off the bench late when Sebastien Haller needs a rest.
He certainly deserves a fair chance to show what he can do, which is why it’s a shame the Hammers’ Carabao Cup run ended so swiftly.
Even though he hasn’t set the world alight, it’d be very surprising to see him offloaded as early as January though.
