West Ham delay transfer decisions until next month as summer window approaches
is Ham are expected to delay decisions on the future of their out-of-contract stars until next month’s Europa Conference League final.
Angelo Ogbonna and Lukasz Fabianski will be free agents at the end of the campaign, but the club’s planning for next season is complicated by the fact that it is not yet clear whether they will face European football.
The Hammers will qualify directly for the Europa League group stage by beating Fiorentina.
Manuel Lanzini is also out of contract this summer and is expected to leave the club. Aaron Cresswell also has an uncertain future.
Declan Rice is another widely expected, with Arsenal currently leading the hunt for his signature. Manchester United would also be very keen, creating a bidding war that would only serve West Ham well.
West Ham have put a price tag of £120m on their captain’s head, although he is likely to be sold for less.
