West Ham United goalkeeper Joe Hart is currently due to spend the season on loan at Manchester City.

According to the Daily Mirror, West Ham United are considering moving for Sam Johnstone in January, and that may suggest that Joe Hart has no future at the London Stadium.

Hart has joined West Ham on loan from Manchester City, and there were suggestions that he could join permanently at the end of the season.

However, Hart has lost his place in West Ham’s starting line-up recently, and if David Moyes is looking to sign a new goalkeeper, that simply cannot be good news for the England international.

Johnstone is still only 25-years-old, and is tipped to have a very bright future in the game.

The England youth international has become one of the stand out players in the Championship, through his performances on loan at Aston Villa.

With Adrian currently number one, West Ham would have very little reason to keep Hart on, if they were to sign Johnstone.

And Hart must be concerned that he won’t be kept on at West Ham, if Moyes is already looking at signing another goalkeeper on a permanent deal.
