West Ham United may still be in the market for new signings this summer.

West Ham United have enjoyed a stunning summer so far, bringing in seven new signings to boost Manuel Pellegrini’s side, and yet more new faces could arrive.

The Hammers landed a new goalkeeper by handing Swansea City’s Lukasz Fabianski a return to the Premier League, whilst their back line has been boosted by the signings of right back Ryan Fredericks as well as centre backs Issa Diop and Fabian Balbuena.

Jack Wilshere has joined his boyhood club to bolster the midfield area, whilst Felipe Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko have also signed to provide creativity in the absence of the injured Manuel Lanzini.

Even after seven signings and a major outlay, West Ham could be in the market for new signings, though it may require fringe players like Winston Reid, Pedro Obiang, Cheikhou Kouyate, Sam Byram and Jordan Hugill to move on.

If West Ham do dip back into the transfer market, Pellegrini could still look to bring in another centre back, central midfielder, playmaker or striker, with a host of names still being linked with the club.

As provided to HITC, Ladbrokes have priced up odds for West Ham’s likeliest signing before next month’s transfer deadline, and they have Domagoj Vida at just 5/2 to make a move to the London Stadium.

The 29-year-old defender starred for Croatia at the World Cup in Russia, helping his country reach the final of the tournament before losing out to France, with Vida forming a strong partnership with Liverpool’s Dejan Lovren.

Vida continues to be linked with Premier League clubs, with Sabah claiming that the Besiktas star is a £20million target for the Hammers – and bookies believe he could be East London-bound.
