West Ham have been handed a huge boost with the Daily Star reporting that Manchester United have to sell Jesse Lingard in order to make a move to sign either Eduardo Camavinga or Saul Niguez.
In other news…Report: West Ham to make £19.6m bid for 26-cap international, Hammers in pole position
Hammers boss David Moyes is clearly desperate to bring the 28-year-old Man United ace back to the London Stadium this summer.
Lingard was a huge hit with West Ham during a loan spell in East London last season.
He bagged nine goals and four assists in just 16 Premier League games last season.
Jesse was a key factor in West Ham’s amazing campaign and had a defining impact on our sixth placed finish.
There were concerns that the 29-capped England international would not return to the London Stadium, however. He was keen to prove himself once again at his boyhood club.
It seems as though a move back to the Hammers could now be very much on, however.
West Ham handed big boost with Manchester United ready to sell Lingard
The Daily Star claims that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to bring either Eduardo Camavinga or Saul Niguez.
And in order to make that happen, the Man United boss allegedly needs to move Lingard on.
That really is a huge boost for the Hammers.
The Express claims that the 28-year-old could be available for around £20 million. That’s great value.
We just need to get this one done asap. No haggling over fees or wages, just pay them what they want.

With Alphonse Areola done and a move to bring Kurt Zouma to the London Stadium all but there, the addition of Lingard would make our transfer window a very good one all of a sudden.
All Moyes would then need then is a new striker and West Ham will undoubtedly be a real force this season.
