OPINION
Both of these deals will be fantastic for West Ham. Wilshere could well be the most important, if the former Arsenal man can rediscover the form that led Arsene Wenger to compare him to Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe. Those days may be behind him but Manuel Pellegrini is obviously hoping he can rekindle the flames and get the midfielder back to his best. If he does, he could have snapped up one of the bargains of the summer. It looks like his medical has passed without a hitch, which is great news for club and player. The deal for Yarmolenko looks like it’s going to complete imminently too. He’s got goals in him and is an exciting talent – he’s top scored for his club three times and hit 143 goals in 366 games for Dortmund and Dynamo Kyiv. He’s also got 35 goals in 76 games for his country and will be hoping he can bring that prolific firepower to the Premier League next season.
