Reliable West Ham insiders Claret & Hugh have named three potential players from the current squad who could all leave in January as the club look to raise funds for their own business.
Full-back Ryan Fredericks is reported as the most likely to leave the London Stadium as he has fallen behind Ben Johnson in the pecking order, whilst wingers Robert Snodgrass and Andriy Yarmolenko are said to be next in line for the chopping block in east London.
Hammers manager David Moyes had previously quelled any anxiety among his players by insisting there would be no winter outgoings. However, that as ever is a fluid situation, especially during the mid-season transfer window.
On a case-by-case basis, there are only a handful of reasons for the Irons to rebuff any interest in the trio.
All three have made a positive impact during their West Ham careers at times, but those came prior to this season, with just 12 Premier League appearances between them in 2020/21 – nine of which have come from the bench.

It’s difficult to make a case to keep any of the three players mentioned should there be reasonable interest from elsewhere in the coming weeks.
Whilst the club won’t raise an eye-watering amount of money across those potential sales, the fees along with the reduction in the wage bill should benefit Moyes in January if he looks to freshen up his squad.
