Bilel Mohsni On Trial

July 17, 2012 By Iron Bobby 2 Comments

SkySports are reporting that Southend United star Bilel Mohsni is currently on trial with West Ham United.

The 24-year-old defender has been linked with a host of clubs over the last year. Stoke City and Blackpool have both seen offers rejected by Southend for Mohsni, who can also play as a striker.

However, Southend have confirmed that they have agreed to let him train with an unnamed club which SkySports have confirmed as West Ham.

I don’t know a great deal about the player other than what’s been in the media. How about you? Do you know anything more about the player or seen him play?

West Ham Bid For Berbatov

July 17, 2012 By Iron Bobby 3 Comments

After the Andy Carroll trail seems to have gone cold West Ham appear to have turned their attention to Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov.

Berbatov, 31, has announced his intention to leave on a social network site in search of regular first team football after becoming disillusioned with life being a bit part player last season.

West Ham are hoping a return to London will tempt Berbatov who spent several seasons playing here for Spurs.

What do you think? Good signing? Type of player we should be after? Leave a comment and get discussing.

Hammers Close On Modibo Maiga

July 10, 2012 By Iron Bobby Leave a Comment

The Mail reports West Ham are close to a £4.5m deal for Sochaux striker Modibo Maiga.

If we are to believe the reports then Maiga also has offers from Stoke and Reading sitting on the table.

I confess I don’t know too much about the player but managed to find a YouTube video of him scoring some goals, he seems to come alive in the box and can certainly head a ball as well!

He looks like he could be a handy player for us so lets hope there is some truth to the report.

News today is that West Ham United are understood to be close to completing the signing of Sunderland left sided player Kieran Richardson.

West Ham have been strongly linked with a move for the former Manchester United player since the end of last season, and it now looks like Sam Allardyce is closing on one of his transfer targets.

Since Martin O’Neil took over as Sunderland boss, Richardson who is now 27, has found it tough to get a game for the Black Cats. A fee in the region of £2.5Million has been mooted.

Transfer Deadline Day Latest

January 31, 2012 By Iron Bobby Leave a Comment

As the 11pm deadline looms I have been out and about on the internet and have Sky Sports as a fixture on my TV looking for the latest news for us Hammers!

Main stories are as follows:

Sky Sports are reporting West Ham have agreed a fee in the region of 2.5 Million for Bristol City’s Nicky Maynard. This is great news in my opinion as this is just what we need a regular goal scorer!

Genoa Striker Ze Eduardo arrived in London yesterday and completed a medical with the idea he plays on loan for the rest of the season and it turns into a permanent deal in the summer.

Manchester United’s 18-year-old Midefielder Ravel Morrison is on his way to London in order to undergo a medical ahead of a proposed permanent transfer from Manchester United. Looking around the web this guy has some serious talent and is thought to be the best youngster to come out of the Manchester Utd academy since a certain Paul Scholes, however it appears he has a slight disciplinary problem which is why Sir Alex is willing to let him go. Lets hop a change of scenery is what the young man needs!

And yet another striker on his way to The Boleyn is Ricardo Vaz Te, who Barnsley have reportedly accepted a bid of £750,000 for from the Hammers. With 12 league goals already this season he could be magic up front with Mr. Maynard.
