West Ham United seeks defensive reinforcements ahead of transfer deadline

West Ham United is actively seeking defensive reinforcements as the summer transfer window approaches its conclusion. The club is facing a shortage of reliable center-back options following recent defensive struggles and discussions regarding the exit of Jean-Clair Todibo.

Potential targets for the club include Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Ethan Pinnock, and Victor Nellson. The club has also been linked to Dylan Lawlor, though his availability may be impacted by injury. Additionally, West Ham has expressed interest in Freiburg goalkeeper Noah Atubolu, a Germany U21 international who currently lacks a squad number at his club.
