After lurking rumours in the background for a long time, it has finally been announced that Amanda Staveley is stepping up her interest in buying a 25% stake in West Ham with the ambition for a full takeover when possible.

As time has passed, it has become evident that Daniel Kretinsky would like to remain as a minority shareholder, but would like enough to currently have control, providing him with the highest stake, allowing him to have control over certain issues, rather than seeing other shareholders, David Sullivan, run the club into the ground.

West Ham’s slow transfer activity puts them on par with Wrexham, who are the only Championship club to not make a signing so far this season. The Hammers would be on par with them, but the confirmation of Keiber Lamadrid puts the club at a tally of one.

However, with the Hammers having made the most money this transfer window from player sales out on anyone in the Footballing world, the primary target begins as a winger, where the Hammers are exploring their own targets, but are happy to take their time ‘operating’ under a new system.

Since the Hammers moved to the London Stadium in 2016, they have had little to no control over the decisions ongoing in the stadium and in the event of a proposed change, there always seem to be difficulties when it comes to concluding deals due to the financial implications.
