West Ham are in advanced talks to reunite Chelsea analyst Kyle Macauley with Graham Potter. A deal is expected to be completed this week as negotiations about an exit package move in the right direction, according to sources at both clubs.

Graham Potter has left the door open to the possibility of West Ham signing a new centre-back this month. The Hammers head coach bemoaned the club’s shortage of options in central defence.

West Ham are poised to sign Finland international Eva Nystrom. The 25-year-old hopes to complete her move to London next week, ending a four-year stay at Swedish club Hammarby. The centre-back would become West Ham's first signing of the January transfer window and fills a position that was a priority for manager Rehanne Skinner.

West Ham United could make a move for Lille star Angel Gomes in the January transfer window, according to reports - with a cash offer potentially trumping any other interested parties in the winter window.
