Moyes, who is considering whether to make a move for the Leicester left-back Luke Thomas, is keen to sign a left-sided midfielder and has set his sights on Kostic. The Serbia international, who helped Eintracht win the Europa League last season, can play as a left winger and left wing-back.


The 29-year-old, whose deal runs out next year, has previously been linked with Juventus. Eintracht could demand €20m (£17m) for Kostic, whose contract expires next year. Moyes had a close look at him when Eintracht beat West Ham in the Europa League semi-finals.

West Ham are also keeping a close eye on Blackburn’s Ben Brereton Díaz, who can play on the left wing and as a central striker. The Chile international impressed in the Championship last season.

Along with trying to sign an attacking player on the left, West Ham are keen to bring in a full-back to compete with Aaron Cresswell. One of their targets, Hoffenheim’s David Raum, is expected to join RB Leipzig.

Another name on the list is Thomas, who has impressed since breaking into Leicester’s first team two years ago. The 21-year-old left-back could be available if Leicester, who need to sell before signing anyone, receive a suitable offer.

Would rather keep him to be honest and not have the money for transfers. I think i have alzheimers

Won’t happen. 
 

Young homegrown lad, not sure if he’ll ever be a star full back for us, but probably always gonna be good enough for a squad option at minimum, and helps with our European quota when we do qualify. 
 

Probably end up with a new contract by Christmas.

Time for a new contract I expect, last signed one in August 2020

 

No chance should we be selling him.

I guess it depends on whether or not we can get Bertrand fit

Get him gone as well - 3 full backs rotating for a season with no Europe is plenty

I have a feeling we are getting desperate and are willing to flog pretty much anyone. 

 

Full back would be place we can let someone go.

1 injury to one of those 3 injury prone full backs and you can’t rotate at all

Think this is just paper talk, can’t see West Ham wanting him at all, there’s better options for probably less money. I like Luke, good squad option for us.

Get Colwill in and he can cover left back as well, whilst he waits in the wings to take over from Evans. 

He wouldn’t be capable of playing left back for us

 

He has played 6 games at left back in his career including his youth years, just because he possibly could cover left back doesn’t mean he should be unless in an absolute emergency

Can we loan him to them. A year away with Moyes lump it lads is exactly what he needs. 
 

He’d be in the same position as what he is though. Back up to Cresswell and Justin is good for an injury currently
