West Ham Wisely Avoids Another  Disaster It was a wise move on the part of West Ham United not to sign Samu Omorodion from Atletico Madrid. The transfer would have been dangerous for the Hammers due to the complicated ownership structure and possible legal issues. Dual player ownership is a contentious topic in several nations, especially in England, where West Ham notoriously ran into legal problems when they signed Tevez and Maschereno. The fact that the Spanish striker moved to Porto for a sum much less than West Ham was allegedly willing to pay is indicative of the complexity of…

Leeds United must act on Daniel Farke contract statement with new offer for “model professional” – View Welsh Gnonto, a winger for Leeds United, is rumoured to have been acting like a “model pro” lately, one year after he asked to leave the team in 2023. The summer window of Daniel Farke is about to expire in less than a week, and he still needs people to join his side. The club needs to be ready for any scenario because there is a persistent concern that they may still be forced into sales before August 30. “Mickey Mouse”: Chris Wilder…

‘Special’ Leeds player is pushing to leave Elland Road before deadline day with signing lined up Leeds United had to deal with several significant departures during the summer transfer window, which made things extremely difficult for them. After star player Crysencio Summerville left Elland Road for West Ham United earlier this month, Georginio Rutter is the most recent to leave. Joe Rothwell, who arrived on a season-long loan from Bournemouth, has since taken Archie Gray’s spot at Tottenham, having joined the team at the beginning of July. Leeds has now moved to replace Summerville as they near the…

Man City give West Ham new hope of blockbuster deal with strategic move Manchester City and West Ham have the potential to exchange about a quarter of a billion pounds in the past year. This summer, West Ham embarked on a significant rebuild with the understanding that the sale of Lucas Paqueta to Manchester City would provide them with an additional £85 million. Last summer, an agreement was reached between the Hammers and Manchester City to bring Paqueta to the Etihad for his £85 million release clause. However, that move was thwarted by an abrupt inquiry into his purported…

West Ham ‘accept offer’ for defender’s exit – Hammers now negotiatiing 2 key details of deal We reported on Brazilian reports last month suggesting Luizão wants to return to West Ham United under Julen Lopetegui after David Moyes passed him over. Additionally, it was said that the centre back’s group would be open to a move. After coming from São Paulo, the 22-year-old has not yet played for West Ham’s senior squad since January 2023. In order to remove the defender from West Ham, Corinthians has now intervened. Globe Esporte, which offers further information on this case, later confirmed…

Leeds United team news as Farke rings the changes again after Middlesbrough collapse Daniel Farke named his starting lineup for Leeds United’s Championship match against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday afternoon at The Hawthorns. Seven changes from Farke have, predictably, reversed the rotation he instituted in midweek to such a poor effect for Leeds United. Joel Piroe is the only player who survived the eight switches on Wednesday. Junior Firpo, Ethan Ampadu, and Joe Rodon are playing in their third matches in a week. The Dutch striker remains in the starting lineup and is probably going to play behind…

Middlesbrough boss Michael Carrick addresses goalkeeper situation The decision by Michael Carrick to start in goal for the Carabao Cup match against Leeds United this evening should not be seen as proof of a shot-stopping hierarchy inside the team. Despite the departures of Zach Hemming and Jamie Jones this summer—the former signed a permanent contract at Salford City, while the latter joined Leyton Orient on loan—Boro still has three senior goalkeepers with experience. Seny Dieng is unquestionably the top player for Boro; Tom Glover and Sol Brynn are his competitors. Dieng started the team’s Championship opener against Swansea City last…

Why does Leeds’ away kit have a different badge? Whites return to ‘smiley’ emblem on yellow shirt The supporters are adoring Leeds United’s new yellow away uniform, which will be unveiled this weekend against West Brom. After their 2018 scandal, the Whites are no strangers to dramatic badge changes, but the 2024–25 yellow strip has drawn greater praise. On a first day of sales that broke records, the Yorkshire club reported that over 15,000 of the new shirts were sold. With a “smiley” emblem that harks back to the 1970s, the Elland Road outfit has had 13 different crests…

10/10 transfer window could elude West Ham with Manchester United in for ‘unreal’ France international Although West Ham United has already had an amazing summer transfer window, Manchester United may now be about to deal us a blow. Congratulations to David Sullivan, Tim Steidten, and Julen Lopetegui for bringing so many elite players to West Ham during the summer transfer window thus far. However, it definitely could get even better with one final push from the powers that be at the London Stadium. Despite criticism from Richard Keys regarding what he says has been a lack of value for money for…
