As David Moyes’ West Ham continues to grow, squad evolution is a crucial issue for the East Londoners.
Continuous progress implies that certain players who have helped the Hammers to this stage under the Scot may be released in order for the club to bring in younger or better players.
The Europa League title should not be viewed as the conclusion of West Ham’s ambitions but rather as the start of something exceptional for the club.
If they can maintain their momentum both on and off the field, the ECL victory over Fiorentina could be remembered as a watershed point in the club’s history.
There’s no doubting that the club’s four summer signings—James Ward-Prowse, Edson Alvarez, Konstantinos Mavropanos, and Mohammed Kudus—have performed admirably.
Adding one or two more players of comparable caliber will arguably transform the Irons into a true domestic and European force, but some sales will be required.
Claret and Hugh have listed those who will be laid-back, including fan favorite Angelo Ogbonna.
According to Transfermarkt, he’s been a great stalwart for the club in previous years, but he’s getting no younger, and his form this season has obviously gone out the window.
It could be the ideal time for both parties to make a clean break.
