DAVID SULLIVAN SCOUT TWO WESTHAM STAR PLAYER FOR NUNO ESPIRITO TO LEAVE THE TEAM BY JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW.

⚒️ Sullivan Sanctions January Shake-Up: Two Stars Set for West Ham Exit

West Ham United chairman David Sullivan is reportedly ready to back manager Nuno Espírito Santo with a significant squad overhaul in the January transfer window, a move that will see at least two key players exit the club.

Amid a difficult start to the season, Nuno has received assurances that funds will be available to target a new defender, midfielder, and striker. To facilitate these incoming transfers and free up wage bill space, the club has identified two notable players who are now deemed surplus to the manager’s long-term plans.

The first star facing an almost certain departure is midfielder James Ward-Prowse. Despite being a vice-captain and a regular starter earlier in the season, the 30-year-old has been axed from the matchday squad immediately following Nuno’s arrival. Reports suggest there is “no way back” for the set-piece specialist, making a January exit inevitable, with Everton already showing interest.

The second player expected to depart is Argentine midfielder Guido Rodríguez. Signed on a free transfer, Rodríguez has barely featured under the new manager, logging just 19 minutes of action since the change in the dugout. Selling the World Cup winner is seen as a “no-brainer” by the board to offload his £75,000-per-week wages, providing critical room for Nuno to pursue his primary targets.

West Ham is now actively scouting the market, with the manager prioritizing players who can bring “real energy” and “attacking intent” to the struggling squad. This major shake-up signals the club’s firm commitment to Nuno Espírito Santo as they battle to avoid relegation.
