Hammers boss David Moyes will undoubtedly be keen to bolster his right-back ranks at the London Stadium this summer – and they don’t come much better than Walker.

West Ham were actually linked with a move to sign the 33-year-old Man City man just a few months ago.

And those links have resurfaced once again today…

Now, Walker is an unbelievable player, and I really can’t see this one happening – let’s just get that out the way.

However, should he leave Man City this summer, West Ham should definitely be trying to sign him on a two-year deal, I just don’t think we’ll have any chance of tempting him into moving to the London Stadium.

The 33-year-old is by far and away the quickest player in the game. He’s almost impossible to dribble past and provides a real outlet going forward as well.

Walker would be a huge upgrade on Vladimir Coufal, there are no two ways about that.

There are question marks as to whether he’s still got the hunger needed to help West Ham improve though. He’s won the Champions League and numerous Premier League and domestic cup trophies with Man City.

Would a move to the Hammers really float his boat? I’m sorry but I just can’t see it.

West Ham signing Kyle Walker in the summer transfer window just seems like a totally unrealistic prospect as far as I’m concerned.
