We’ve reached this time of the year, early. The time where West Ham are linked with former Chelsea players Salomon Kalou and/or Florent Malouda.
Football Direct News has played a game of ‘eeny, meeny, miny, moe’ and decided that this time the rumour will involve Malouda.
The 33-year-old is currently plying his trade in Turkey with Trabzonspor, where he has made 19 appearances in the Super Lig notching five goals in the process.
The Frenchman is a winger/attacking midfielder and you have to ask yourself is he really needed?
Both too old to be good in the long term surely
