West Ham United are continuing their impressive transfer business as it looks like they will secure the signing of Jean-Clair Todibo from OGC Nice.<\/p>\n

West Ham Hijack Juventus Deal for Jean-Clair Todibo<\/h2>\n

Agreement Completed for Loan With Obligation to Buy<\/h3>\n

Fabrizio Romano has revealed that West Ham have hijacked the Juventus deal for Todibo. The Bianconeri\u00a0<\/em>have been in talks with Nice for weeks to no avail.<\/p>\n

Instead, the Hammers have an “agreement now done”<\/a> for a loan with an obligation to buy for \u00a335 million. There is a sell-on clause in the contract and the suitors are trying to book a medical for Friday. However, they still need to wait for the “flawless”<\/a> player’s approval, as he is reviewing the contract proposal.<\/p>\n

West Ham’s Incredibly Strong Backline Can Take Them to Europe<\/h3>\n

Julen Lopetegui’s side continue to bolster their backline. By the end of the transfer window, they could have an entirely new back-four. At right-back, they are trying to secure the signing of Aaron Wan-Bissaka<\/a> from Manchester United. Meanwhile, they already have a new centre-back in Max Kilman<\/a>, who has been reunited with his former manager. We could well see a new left-back join in the near future as well.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, there is a plethora of strong defensive-midfielders at the London Stadium, with Guido Rodriguez<\/a> joining Tomas Soucek and Edson Alvarez. It’s unsurprising that this is the area of the pitch that the hierarchy are focused on strengthening: last season only Sheffield United, Burnley, and Luton Town conceded more times in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

This new strong defence could propel the East London side to a European spot, especially given the strength of their dangerous attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
