Callum Wilson now in talks with Southampton. He’s been offered a contract there, as he has been at Coventry
As previously posted WH offered a new contract, but he’s punting around. Whilst in one sense you can't blame him as a player, no point waiting on him.
WH need to move on and forget about him now.
22 Jun 2026 19:30:08
After earlier news re Todibo Marseille. Have now thrown their hat in the ring, again they are looking for a loan with option, this is not what WH are after.
22 Jun 2026 18:22:27
Kretinsky has again talked to Lee Dykes, Paul Mitchell and two others for the ongoing DOF position.
No further information at present? This needs to be sorted quickly.
22 Jun 2026 18:58:16
Becoming a bit of an issue, joyful. Thought this would have had a high priority to get sorted.
22 Jun 2026 19:27:20
It has, but it's proving to be difficult.
23 Jun 2026 08:48:35
This needs to be right.
I don't see any issue with this going a few additional weeks.
23 Jun 2026 11:49:21
I agree with Hec. No rush needed with this appointment, imo. There are plenty of people who can make buying decisions and deals in the meantime. Perhaps other things, such as Sullivan's shares potentially being sold to Staveley, might also be delaying matters, as surely whoever buys might want a say in the DoF decision...
Whatever, there are a lot of positives happening now at WHU, and, apart from the relegation, a lot of reasons to be cheerful.
23 Jun 2026 14:59:08
Kretinsky has organised enough support in the boardroom to have a majority even if Stavely buys Sullivan's shares.
23 Jun 2026 16:19:03
Hi Mark, hope you're well, been a while. Agreed, but imo, getting the right DoF is so important for the club, in terms of fit and ethos. There is no point rushing it. We don't want another Steidten.
22 Jun 2026 16:17:03
Well the players, that are not competing in the World Cup, will be back on July 6th, Monday week,
We will be better placed then to see any absences, not given permission, or not given extra time off, as they have been playing in the cup
The only player giving problems at the moment is Fulkrug, who has told Nuno he’s not coming back. He’s told WH they can rip up his contract; he doesn’t want the money! He wants to be let go.
That may well be, but WH hold his registration
WH want: Small fee from the German clubs or anybody else
WH have paid him up to date June 30th...July 1st wages are halved. WH can still save £5.5. M in wages for the last two years of his contract, save the agro let him go
22 Jun 2026 18:59:39
Am sure a few of us would happily get rid of him and drive him to his next destination.
22 Jun 2026 13:07:59
Chibuike Naiwuwe, CB Trabonspor, WH have enquired about him
Cannot see WH paying the price quoted 30 m euros.
WH see him at 20 m euros. Problem there is Trabonspor have already turned away two offers for that amount.
22 Jun 2026 11:45:02
Todibo! WH receive call from Fenerbache, they ask for a loan, plus option to buy
WH want to sell obviously, they won’t mind a loan with a compulsory purchase, but they won’t want him back at season's end.
Don’t forget we have history with Fenerbache, re Alvarez, they are a little difficult to deal with.
22 Jun 2026 10:17:56
Two Cardiff players fancied. Ruben Colwill atm and Salech. Cf
Nuno's expanding list, he’s going to need more paper!
21 Jun 2026 18:18:41
Anthony Musaba, WH taking interest in Fenerbache winger, decent player for the Championship circa 7/8 m euros?
21 Jun 2026 11:30:15
Neto Gk, on a free? Seen as reserve Gk? He’s 36. Now, another on. Nuno's list, (getting longer).
21 Jun 2026 19:50:56
Why not if Areola leaves. Decent goalie with experience.
20 Jun 2026 20:32:38
Hi Joyful.
I know you tend to keep yourself to player dealings but I wondered if you have any info regarding DOF. Like most, it has seemed like a great week and a real feeling that we are almost rid (or will be soon) of most of the rotten apples at the top. But we are hearing a lot of talk, much of which I’m sure is either true or we hope it is true. But hearing on other sites that we had a done deal for the former Newcastle DOF only to hear that this is not happening.
I don’t want to start the old pessimism again but all the stuff about DOF, player retention, Coach re-hiring, new stadium, new training facilities. None of this is actually set in stone or done deals. We are used to getting our hopes up only for them to be dashed. We’ve generally stopped believing anything coming out of the club. Do you think things are genuinely different this time?
20 Jun 2026 22:21:37
Yup, looks like Nickson joining Wrexham. It may be, just maybe something to do with a Staveley approach? Can't say
Although we were expecting a ton of problems following Sullivan's exit, nothing bad has happened so far, Kretinsky has got a grip.
Kretinsky is no fool, he's in charge now, so we fans have to have faith, things don't always go smoothly, especially for West Ham
Next two weeks are going to tell the story, let's see what happens.
21 Jun 2026 09:57:44
One week to go until fixtures are announced and still no Director of Football. Nickson off to Wrexham, so who next, I wonder.
{Ed001's Note - you have signed that Venezuelan/Colombian lad though, Keiber Lamadrid, even without one. I wonder who decided it then without a DoF?}
21 Jun 2026 11:14:39
Kerim Verani, Mark Noble, Nuno, 950k gamble! It was ok'd by Kretinsky.
21 Jun 2026 11:59:01
Great Question Ed001! Who is making these decisions, KREZYNSKI?
Surely he is far too busy to be involved in player transfers?
{Ed001's Note - I wish I knew the answer mate.}
21 Jun 2026 15:44:24
I've given the answer.
20 Jun 2026 17:52:48
Summerville, Arsenal have now asked to be informed of the actual amount WH need for transfer
They have been told, as others have, £55 m.
20 Jun 2026 20:31:16
Price just went up. 🤣
20 Jun 2026 13:51:26
Reiss Nelson, whilst the player is looking around for the best deal he can get, and would prefer to stay in the Premier, he’s not opposed to come to WH
Arsenal don’t wish to extend his contract, which expires this coming season, so don’t want to loan but want to sell
It’s in thoughts he is a Summerville replacement for the Championship. Another on Nuno's list.
21 Jun 2026 09:53:07
If nothing else, squad player.
20 Jun 2026 12:08:59
Transfer business, this is NOT speculation. Nuno is there and looking through players he might want, should they be available.
His problem is who is staying; this will be cleared up soon.
Itks saying they can’t get hold of, or can’t get an answer, from WH is silly talk.
Kretinsky, who is presently in charge, has spoken to any club, or returned e-mail, to interested parties on our players.
He is sticking to valuations.
The actual bids were posted yesterday, and, as far as he is concerned, do not match those values.
His attitude is there is no point wasting time with clubs who want to pay far less than his target.
Far different scenario than Sullivan, who by now would have sold the whole squad for flumpence.
Tottenham, who said they can’t get through, have made no bids for any player as of last night.
20 Jun 2026 09:58:14
Isidor, sticking point, WH not looking to buy the player, loan or loan to buy maybe?
Sunderland want to sell, first and foremost. Looks like the player is happy to come to WH
One of a few options we shall see.
20 Jun 2026 10:24:25
I am not sure why this player would be of interest. 13 goals in 46 Champ appearances, and 6 in 35 in the Prem. Hardly prolific. Even Pablo would probably score 13 goals in the Champ!
20 Jun 2026 10:36:58
Agreed! The problem here for me is West Ham getting caught between two stools.
Tatty, will he stay? Pablo? West Ham need to splash a few quid up front if our current players go.
West Ham need a proven Championship scorer like Vipotnik up front to fire us back to the Premiership.
Cheap options will leave us lacking. You can't just sell, we have to get a few players in that are needed. Full stop.
20 Jun 2026 09:48:45
Loads of queries. On this as far as I know Capital Water will be on front of shirts, this season, and again, as far as I know, the name New Balance will be displayed somewhere on the kit.
20 Jun 2026 10:17:05
Someone else mentioned this. Capital Water are a small company, are you sure? Maybe on the sleeves, but surely not on the front of the matchday shirts.
20 Jun 2026 11:51:43
There may be some confusion, maybe I'm confused. Prior to the end of last season, some kind of deal was done with Capital Water Treatment, and that would be the name on the shirt front.
It's not a big sponsorship, obviously.
Maybe Kretinsky will undo the agreement and find something better, or maybe have nothing at all, which most fans would prefer.
As far as I know, that's where we are presently; I've heard nothing different.
