In an ideal world Hammers would have the resources to try and negotiate for TWO additional strikers to replace the ageing Miley Antonio and the off form Danny Ings. Ings is on massive money and has to go down as one of David Moyes' worst signings since Jordan Hugill!

Mikey Antonio isn't getting any younger and while he could still be a brilliant impact sub probably feels that he has a season or two left in his legs at a club that where he would be starter week in week out, something that is very unlikely when Lopetegui takes over the managerial reins at the club.

Thilo Kehrer is a top Hammers player currently out on loan at Monaco, he gave his all for the club when called upon and helped glue the defence and midfield together for the last half hour of the club's glorious Conference European Cup Final victory over Fiorentina.

Another player that exiting manager David Moyes didn't 'fancy', and there have been many, Thilo oozed class and although he had the odd ricket in his game had the speed generally to recover his mistakes.

A friend of the site who works for TNT, (formerly BT Sport) has confirmed to us that there has been a flurry of activity in West Ham's press and PR offices at the Stratford stadium where TNT are also based.

News leaked by Fabrizio Romano appeared to take the PR machine of balance, with the general assumption being that an announcement was due to be made on Friday ahead of this week's final home game against Luton on Saturday.
