A Qatari takeover at Man United would have a big payoff for West Ham as reports make spending spree and fire sale claims.

West Ham and Manchester United have very different aims for the remainder of the season.

The Hammers are in a battle to stay in the Premier League while Man United have realistic aims of trying to win it.

So transfers may not be at the top of the agenda for West Ham boss David Moyes or his Red Devils counterpart Erik ten Hag right now.

But that has not stopped media speculation regarding movement between West Ham and Man United in the summer.

It seems a Qatari takeover of Man United would have a big payoff for West Ham as reports make spending spree and fire sale claims.

Man United have been put up for sale by the Glazers and are attracting interest from the winter World Cup host nation.

And the Qataris are ready to spend significant sums on the team to help restore Man United to its former glories according to Sky Sports.

The potential big payoff for West Ham comes in the form of right-back target Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

West Ham have chased the defender for the last two transfer windows.

And talkSPORT reports that offloading him and four or five other players such as Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial is key to Man United’s summer strategy.

The report claims is raising funds from the sale of players Ten Hag does not see as part of his long-term plans.

Man United are open to selling West Ham target Wan-Bissaka if their £25m valuation is met as part of a fire sale.

With the potential arrival of the Qatari ownership and the rumoured spending spree, it is clear the fire sale is to make way for new arrivals at Old Trafford.

One new report from Claret and Hugh even claimed West Ham and Man United are having open dialogue over Wan-Bissaka after the Red Devils had productive talks with Real Valladolid over a move for defender Ivan Fresneda.
