According to ExWHUemployee, West Ham will only sell Sebastien Haller if they are offered £45 million for the Frenchman’s services.

The 26-year-old arrived at the London Stadium from Eintracht Frankfurt last summer for around £45 million (BBC).
Haller desperately struggled to establish himself with the Hammers, however.

In 34 games in all competitions for West Ham, the 6ft 3in Frenchman scored just seven goals (Transfermarkt).
It must be pointed out, however, that he he wasn’t given enough support or service.
According to a report from the Sunday People (August 30th; page 56), David Moyes is willing to move Haller on this summer.
But ExWHUemployee has refuted those claims on Twitter…
He hasn’t it’s not true. Neither is the loan story https://t.co/HR5PQPjhts

Moyes wants to give him another year to prove himself but if a 45m came in he would accept but I don’t think they would come in for him https://t.co/8y3k7pqYA4

ExWHUemployee is nearly always spot on with his claims. So it seems as though Moyes still has high hopes for Haller.
And if the 26-year-old is played in the correct system, there is no reason why he cannot flourish for West Ham.
The Frenchman was superb in the Bundesliga two seasons ago when paired up front with Luka Jovic.

And David Moyes must give Haller every chance of succeeding by playing him as part of a two-pronged attack this term. Whether that be with Michail Antonio or a new signing, it matters little.
The former Eintracht Frankfurt hitman has the talent needed to succeed. He just needs to be given the tools to help him do just that.
And it seems as though he won’t be going anywhere anytime soon, because it is highly unlikely that any club would pay £45 million for him in the current climate.
