Hammers boss David Moyes definitely needs to bolster his ranks at the London Stadium in January if we are to go on and finish inside the top six or seven this season.

A new centre-forward and central midfielder should be topping the Scot’s priority list.

If we really want to reach another level, however, we need more competition in the left-back/left wing-back positions.

And TEAMtalk reckon MK Dons ace Matthew Sorinola could be an option for us.

The 19-year-old Lambeth-born ace is a left-back by trade but he can also operate at centre-back.

Matthew Sorinola has racked up one goal and two assists in 20 games for MK Dons (Transfermarkt). And he seems to be a a really exciting young talent.

The teenager would be the ideal back-up for Arthur Masuaku and Aaron Cresswell. And he would hopefully be able to learn his trade from the two senior West Ham stars.

Sorinola would probably be fairly cheap as well.

Young, cheap, talented and a high ceiling. He seems to be tailor made for David Moyes’ blueprint for success at the London Stadium.

This is definitely a transfer rumour we should all be able to get behind.
