West Ham United should offload some players at the turn of the year.

West Ham United have a new man at the helm and it is up to David Moyes to get the Hammers back on track as soon as possible.

While he currently has to make do with the players already at the club, January will offer him the chance to bring in some new faces, as well as ditching the deadwood, and here we take a look at three West Ham players who could be sold later this season:

Diafra Sakho

While Moyes will have his own ideas regarding team selection, it would be a surprise if Diafra Sakho has a long-term future at West Ham.

The 27-year-old has been very much a bit-part player under Slaven Bilic and, with the likes of Andy Carroll, Javier Hernandez and Andre Ayew ahead of him in the pecking order, it is time he moved on.

With Joe Hart the undisputed number one at West Ham right now, fellow goalkeeper Adrian needs to move on for the good of his career.

He should not be reserve at this stage and could generate a few million that Moyes could then reinvest in his squad.

Doneil Henry

The forgotten man on this list, Canadian centre-back Doneil Henry is currently recovering from a ruptured knee ligament and if West Ham want to make any money back on the player they need to sell him in January or lose him for nothing in the summer.

Much will depend on his current predicament, with just under three months to complete his long-term recovery and prove any new club that he is ready to make up for lost time.

The West Ham defender may have to see out the season at the London Stadium, but if there is a chance of an earlier departure, the Hammers would be wise to take it.
