West Ham United are interested in signing the German international defender Jonathan Tah.
According to a report from football transfers, West Ham United could make their move for the 27-year-old defender in the coming weeks. Apparently, the player is keen on a move to the Premier League and it remains to be seen whether the Hammers can get the deal done.
Tah has been a reliable defender in the Bundesliga over the years and he has the quality to thrive in the Premier League as well.
The German international has the technical attributes and physicality to do well in English football and he could be a key player for West Ham next season.
The 27-year-old is at the peak of his powers and he will look to prove himself at the highest level.
A move to the Premier League will be an attractive option for the defender and West Ham could provide him with the platform to showcase his qualities in European football as well.
West Ham have secured qualification to the Europa League and they need a better squad in order to do well across multiple competitions.
The defence is in need of strengthening and David Moyes must look to sign a quality central defender this summer.
The Bayer Leverkusen defender has done well in the Bundesliga and he will look to take the next step in his career now. It will be interesting to see if West Ham can agree on a deal with the German club in the coming weeks.
The Hammers recently sanctioned the departure of Declan Rice for a British transfer record fee to Arsenal and they have considerable resources to spend in the transfer market. They are expected to strengthen the squad significantly and they should be able able to afford the German international defender as well.
It will be interesting to see how the situation develops over the next few weeks and whether the Hammers are prepared to lodge an official bid to sign the 27-year-old defender.
As always , it’s not just skill level and ability to perform in the toughest league in the world , but also at what price ? At 15 million a safe bet , but 30 million becomes a lot to lose if things don’t work out .
What the hell is going on at West Ham. It has been reported that Moynes is not happy with the newly appointed Technical Director. Other clubs are busy in the transfer market, while the Hammers are procrastinating as usual. My observation of O’Sullivan is correct. They want to swap Downes whom they recently purchased from Swansea with Southampton. Wheeler Dealing in order to pay out less money for their purchases. What a shambles. The new season start is not too far away and the Hammers has not purchased any one yet. He is not fit to run a soup kitchen.
The Transfer Window is starting to heat up and West Ham appear to be going through a crisis of identity and direction.
I can’t help but think this will be Moyes final season as Manager/1st team coach and the DoF is planning for the future.
