Hammers target, Hammers remain interested, Hammers rumoured to bid and the Hammers intrigued… all of the above have run riot into the world of media, ranging from England to Portugal where other international clubs are reporting ‘done deals’ to try and force a move away when the reality is completely and utterly different.

Reports are all ifs, buts and maybes, and everything is minimal. Exits are unknown, incomings are pending but who is another question.

West Ham have recently acquired an interest in a Portuguese midfielder called Gustavo Sá.

The midfielder, who currently plays for FC Famalicão is said to be Mateus Fernandes’ replacement, whom we sold for an £85m fee a week ago. It has been alluded to that a deal has been spoken about around the £20m mark, but nothing is set in stone and the truth is, Koppen’s targets need to be discussed first, which makes sense given his role in the club.

As the Hammers set to ramp up their transfer business for the upcoming weeks, the club have turned to a former target, in hopes of bolstering their midfield for the upcoming campaign.

The target in question here is Nottingham Forest’s midfielder James McAtee. The Forest man moved to Nottingham last season in the hope of receiving starting game time as well as having European experience. However, his time at Forest has been dull and over time he has fallen out of favour and now an exit is on the cards.
