Tim Steidten puts his foot down with potential West Ham January transfer
Claret and Hugh claim that Harry Maguire will not be joining the Hammers in the January transfer window.

However, another reason is because Steidten would prefer Moyes to sign younger players.
There has to be some balance with our transfer business in my opinion, just like there was in the summer transfer window.
Moyes brought in James Ward-Prowse alongside three foreign imports – Edson Alvarez, Mohammed Kudus and Konstantinos Mavropanos. That was the perfect mix as far as I’m concerned.
Another transfer window like that next summer will do just nicely. And who knows, maybe we’ll bring in one or two top signings in January as well.
Whatever happens, it seems as though Steidten will play a key role for us in the market once again.
