Word is just coming through that West Ham United and Hull City have agreed terms for the transfer of Jarrod Bowen, the highly rated 23 year old attacking midfielder was being courted by Crystal Palace and several other clubs, but it appears Hammers have offered to pay the full asking price which begins at £12 Million rising to as much as £20 Million including add ons.

West Ham: Fabianski, Cresswell, Diop, Ogbonna, Rice, Noble, Masuaku, Snodgrass, Lanzini, Ngakia, Haller. Subs: Randolph, Balbuena, Zabaleta, Sanchez, Fornals, Cardoso, Ajeti.
Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Robertson, Van Dijk, Gomez, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Salah, Origi, Firmino. Subs: Adrian, Fabinho, Lovren, Keita, Minamino, Matip, Jones.

West Ham United went in to the January transfer window with a desperate need for reinforcements, an additional goal keeper, a strong midfielder, a full back and a striker. That is quite some shopping list for an 'elite' club to have mid way through the Barclays Premier League season.

One of the main reasons so many 'new faces' are required, is due to the profligate recruitment policies of Manuel Pellegrini and Mario Husillos, hence the club are now doing everything they can to 'offload' some of the pairs most disastrous signings.
