David Moyes planning exciting double swoop for West Ham

The Hammers’ incredible season has enabled us to set our sights high in the transfer market.

And it seems as though the Scot has his eye fixed on two priority signings.

According to The Daily Mail, the West Ham boss wants to bring Tammy Abraham and Jesse Lingard to East London as soon as he signs his new three-year deal.

Tammy and Jesse would both be sensational additions for the Hammers.

The problem for West Ham, however, is that Chelsea and Manchester United could very well demand huge fees for the English duo.

Hopefully we manage to get deals for both players over the line before the start of next season.
