It looks as though January could be very busy for Slaven Bilic at West Ham with suggestions that Chelsea’s Cesc Fabregas, amongst others, could be on his way to the Hammers.

The Spaniard has cut a dejected figure so far this season for Chelsea after seeing new manager Antonio Conte seemingly deeming him not the right man to play in his system.

The Blues have switched from a 4-2-3-1 to 3-4-3 this season, neither in which Fabregas was put into regularly, and that has suggested that the Spaniard could be on the move from Stamford Bridge in the near future.

He was an instant hit when previous Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho signed him in 2014 as the Blues went on to win the title in 2015 but things fell apart spectacularly last season with Fabregas looking a shadow of his former self.
