West Ham United pursues transfers ahead of deadline
West Ham United is active in the transfer market ahead of the deadline, having secured the signing of Viking FK winger Edvin Austbo for approximately £12m. Despite generating over £200m from player sales, the club's total expenditure is reported to be around £40m.
Reports suggest that any further additions before the window closes will likely be loan deals. The club is currently pursuing 19-year-old FC Midtjylland winger Mikel Gogorza and is preparing a third bid for the player. Additionally, West Ham expressed interest in Hull City defender Ryan Giles, though Hull City has indicated they are unwilling to let him leave.
These moves come as West Ham seeks to strengthen its squad following relegation from the Premier League, aiming for a swift return to the top flight.
