West Ham United could have a chance to sign Jonathan ClaussWest Ham United could be given the opportunity to sign Jonathan Clauss from Marseille, increasing complications over the Frenchman’s future.
According to L’Equipe via Sport Witness, intermediaries could offer Jonathan Clauss to West Ham United to get rid of the 31-year-old French Marseille international.
Right-back could be an option for David Moyes to consider, although any move seems unlikely at this time.
Has Jonathan Clauss offered himself to West Ham?There have been some suggestions that West Ham United would consider signing a new right-back this window, but with no concrete links to any player.
Some stories mention them as suitors for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, but the Manchester United star is certain to stay at Old Trafford.David Moyes is keeping an eye on the developments in this right-back position with his two favorite players out of contract this summer.
Vladimir can extend his contract for another season and his performances this season fully deserve it. However, doubts remain over Ben Johnson’s long-term future at the London Stadium.
With this in mind, Jonathan Clauss’ name has been associated with links to the Hammers. According to reports in France, Marseille have announced their intention to get rid of the 31-year-old French international, offering the player to West Ham through intermediaries.
Clauss has been accused of not giving 100% for Marseille because he wants to stay fresh for the French campaign at Euro 2024.
To his credit it must be said that Didier Deschamps has selected him for the national team’s last four matches and he has a chance to come in in the rose.
However, as far as the Hammers link is concerned, the chances of him arriving in London on the final day of the transfer window are slim to none.West Ham are looking for a new striker.
Although there may not be a new right-back on the final day, Moyes hopes there will be a striker. West Ham were in the market for an unknown striker, with Saïd Benrahma close to a move to Lyon.
They have already seen a failure for Ibrahim Osman, but the Hammers boss has another goal in mind.He had also hoped to recruit Jota from Al-Ittihad, but the Saudi transfer window closes tonight, meaning the chances of either star joining are nil.
