C&H claim to have a highly placed source at West Ham, widely believed to be none other than co-owner David Sullivan.
So if that is the message coming from the horses mouth, Hammers fans should expect a very quiet transfer window.
The ongoing global health crisis has put many clubs under severe financial strain.
It is only the likes of Manchester City, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and potentially Newcastle who will be immune from it all.
West Ham need to strengthen
David Moyes will undoubtedly want to bolster his ranks at the London Stadium this summer. And he certainly needs to.
But that might just prove to be tricky this summer.
The Scot will surely have to get rid of some of the deadwood before he can even contemplate bringing in any fresh faces.
And in the current market, it will be hard for West Ham to get maximum value for anyone they decide to move on.
Claret and Hugh’s report could be a direct message from Sullivan. It might just be an early warning for Hammers fans not to expect too much this summer.
And if that’s the case, we could be in for more struggles on the road ahead.
