David Moyes has plenty of transfer activity planned for this summer’s transfer window but, whilst all the excitement is likely to orientate around potential incoming pieces of business, there could also be significant departures.
One player already linked with an exit from the London Stadium is striker Jordan Hugill, who’s managed just a handful of minutes in the Premier League since signing from Preston in a £12m deal back in January.
Limited to just 22 minutes of action, Hugill’s name is now being touted for an exit and Football.London claim the damning reason behind a potential exit for the 22-year-old is due to the fact he was only signed in case the club were relegated.
West Ham have been flirting with the drop all season and only a recent upturn in form has led to a more comfortable position in the standings, though the club’s top-flight status is yet to be mathematically secured.
With a seven-point advantage over the relegation zone, West Ham look set to secure their position in the Premier League next term and that could lead to a departure for Hugill, who was reportedly signed as a solution to the ‘worst case scenario’ in east London.
