West Ham United have offered Winston Reid to Liverpool according to a report from the Daily Star.

The Reds are currently in the midst of a centre-back crisis with Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip and Fabinho all out injured.
The Hammers, meanwhile, are fairly well stocked in the central defensive department.
Jurgen Klopp will surely be desperate to bolster his backline with the signing of a centre-back before the transfer window slams shut.
That’s in spite of Nat Phillips impressive display for Liverpool at the London Stadium yesterday.
And it seems as though one experienced Premier League centre-back, who earns £80k-a-week according to Claret and Hugh, could be Anfield-bound.
Winston Reid offered to Liverpool?
According to a report from the Daily Star, West Ham have offered the 32-year-old Kiwi to the Reds.
Reid joined West Ham from FC Midtjylland in the summer of 2010 for around £5 million (Eurosport).
The 25-capped New Zealand international instantly endeared himself to the Hammers faithful. It seems as though Reid’s time at the London Stadium could be coming to an end, however.
The centre-back joined MLS side Sporting Kansas City on loan in February, having not played a senior game for the east London outfit since March 2018. That loan spell has now ended, however.
A move to Liverpool would be a huge shock. On his day, he is more than good enough though. The last thing that Klopp needs, however, is to bring another injury prone defender to Anfield.
Let’s see what happens today.
