Despite David Moyes’s declared desire to keep Ben Johnson, the West Ham player is steadfastly refusing to sign a new deal. The only item on West Ham’s radar lately has been signing players during the summer transfer window.
However, there are still rumors that one player will leave the squad. Ben Johnson initially appeared to be David Moyes’ go-to full-back when he first started working out with the team. He has, however, struggled to make the starting eleven and has drawn heavy criticism from West Ham fans for his performances during the course of the 2017–18 campaign.
Johnson, a utility player for the Hammers, has so far declined to sign a new contract, and negotiations have been on hold ever since The Athletic reported that the academy graduate had turned down a six-and-a-half-year agreement with the team. Given Johnson’s lack of success, several West Ham supporters found it hard to believe the club was willing to hand him such a lengthy deal.
They are even more baffled by the fact that he didn’t sign it. Everton was mentioned in connection with Johnson’s potential transfer in January and again this summer. Additionally, there were rumors yesterday that Southampton is also considering a deal for the defender. Several Premier League and Championship teams are keeping an eye on Johnson’s position at West Ham, according to Sky Sports writer Dharmesh Sheth. Johnson is a West Ham player that Moyes claims he wants to keep but who is refusing to sign a new contract following negotiations.
Mohammed Kudus To West Ham Is A Done Deal?
According to Kickgh.com, West Ham United “defied the odds” and achieved a complete deal with Ajax for the sale of Mohammed Kudus, with the announcement “imminent”. The Hammers were up against Brighton and Barcelona to sign the Ghanaian international, but he will be announced “in the coming days.”
They have mostly left the Declan Rice money unspent, and there has been little activity in the window just a few weeks ago, which has left their transfer window in ruins. Kudus will soon become the Hammers’ fourth first-team acquisition of the summer. After Despite Rice’s departure, hammers midfield now appears to be even stronger with to the additions of James Ward-Prowse and Edson Alvarez, Kudus’ old Ajax colleague.
West Ham have achieved an incredible accomplishment for the 23-year-old, attracting attention from top-tier European clubs like as Barcelona. On Thursday, he scored three goals for Ajax in a Europa League qualifier, showing supporters what he’s capable of. But, as he prepares to join the Hammers, that seems to be his final appearance in an Ajax jersey.
