Summer 2025 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

I don’t think he did, did he? Impression I got was we a similar structure to the Elliott deal and West Ham didn’t want that. He then naturally saw the writing on the wall. Elliott is a far better option for us though and I’m sure he’ll demonstrate that.

Maybe. He still declared his dedication to them when there was speculation about us being in for him. Elliott has the potential for being the better bet long-term.

Romano or similar said that if it hadn't been for the furore of social media, Paqueta would have joined Villa. I assume that means the Hammers fans were up in arms about it. Of course he scores in their next game at Forest and blows kisses to the fans. A few weeks later, he's changed his mind again.

He did that silly celebration with his his hand as a phone, like an extra snub at the time. I bet he’d walk barefoot over broken glass to get here now though!
