Central midfield is certainly an area where Moyes will be looking to strengthen in the summer.

Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek have forged a magnificent partnership in central midfield.

West Ham have only Mark Noble and youngster Conor Coventry in reserve, however.

ExWHUemployee claimed that Aston Villa ace John McGinn could be an option for the Hammers as David Moyes is a big fan of the 26-year-old.

The 32-capped Scotland international has racked up 11 goals and 19 assists in 103 games for Villa since joining the club from Hibernian in the summer of 2018 (Transfermarkt).

McGinn set Aston Villa back £3.5 million at the time (Daily Mail). He would surely cost West Ham at least five times that amount now.

We think the Scot would be a very useful addition for the Hammers.
