At this stage, West ham United could be linked with a move to bring one of their U23s through to the senior team and the fans wouldn’t have faith in their board to make it happen. The Irons are useless in the transfer market, and the last thing they have faith in is seeing a transfer pulled off before February 1st.
Abdoulaye Toure
Aged 25
Absolute powerhouse in midfield
£12.5mWest Ham want a loan to buy, but Nantes want money up top

They’re not taking this belief lightly or well, though. The fans are livid at the way that things are going and are keen to see some sort of signing, with Abdoulaye Toure, a 25-year-old workhorse French midfielder, looking like a perfect fit and being linked to the club.
This is nothing more than a formality as far as the Irons are concerned, though, and the last thing they want to see is this deal continually linked before eventually not happening, and it has only forced the supporters into slating their club and fuming at the situation.
Will we sign anyone?
Yes
No
You can read the Hammers’ thoughts on Toure and the club here:
Well this definitely won’t happen if they want the money up front. However if we could pay it over 28 years and use £1000 pound notes as a down payment then I’m sure that @davidgold & Sullivan could pull this one off

We spent £10m on Hugill on the “off chance” we went down last time (& to line Moysey’s brothers pocket).
He may not be a world beater but he’d walk into our midfield atm & £12.5m is nothing in todays market.#GSBOUT— David Clerihew (@DavidClerihew) January 24, 2020
Can he run ? That’s all we need from a CM

FFS stop being so tight and pay them money

We won’t get him. GSB won’t stump up the cash so he’ll go somewhere else.

The Hammers all want signings, although it doesn’t look like they’ll get their wish.
