Hammers could move for duo in winter window
West Ham could make a January move for Fulham central defender Tosin Adarabiyo with whom they were linked in the summer.
However, as reported earlier, much will depend on whether manager David Moyes will be trusted to make further signings once the Quatar event comes to a close.
Adarabiyo’s contracts comes to an end in June next year and has been a regular in the Cottagers team since he joined from Blackburn Rovers in 2020.
He has been one of those Moyes has been interested in along with Ben Brereton-Diaz who is also coming to the end of his Blacburn deal at the same time.
As a result, both could be available at cut prices from the current estimated fees of £16m and £10 million.
The Hammers board will be helped by the appointment of Mark Noble as director of football who is set to have a major say on arrivals and departures.
With Craig Dawson likely to be on his way and Angelo Ogbonna in the last year of his deal Nobes will be closely involved in decision on the two players and others.
West Ham are also eyeing a potential move to sign Tete from Shakhtar Donetsk, but face serious Premier League competition, according to a new report.
Tete is currently on loan at Lyon and Calciomercato reports that there is interest in securing his signature from the Hammers, Brighton, and Leicester.
Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi managed Tete at Shakhtar and is said to be interested in a reunion in the January transfer window.
Tete is out of contract in the summer, and is also facing up to the fact that he has fallen out of favour under Laurent Blanc at Lyon.
He has made a total of 13 appearances this season and has scored five goals, while laying on three assists.
No fee is attached to the story but all three English clubs are said to be eyeing a potential deal at the turn of the year, as are Italian giants AC Milan.
Tete is said to be open to a move in January.
