Andriy Yarmolenko

West Ham United are preparing to do what most other clubs do when there is a lower league club in crisis, hover around and pick off their best players at bargain basement prices. Such is the case with the Irons pursuit and interest in Wigan Athletic's centre back Cedric Kipre.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black, those bastions of honesty FIFA. or Thieffa as we prefer to call them, have climbed down from their ivory tower in order to 'remind' people that they are Europe's football power brokers and what better way than to help give little old West Ham a bit of a kicking in the process. Mind you, the Times, if you pay a subscription, were the story breakers in the first place, so 'fair' play to the Sun's richer cousin!

Ever since his £17.5 Million transfer from Borussia Dortmund, striker Andriy Yarmolenko has rather flattered to deceive whilst picking up over £110,000 pw.
