Julen Lopetegui is set to replace David Moyes as West Ham manager, with uncertainty still surrounding the future of Lucas Paqueta. Despite potential upheavals, the summer transfer window brings the opportunity for new additions to the squad. According to Alan Nixon on his Patreon, Wes Foderingham could be among the first new signings for West Ham.
West Ham are reportedly interested in giving Wes Foderingham another chance in the Premier League. The goalkeeper, who played for Sheffield United this season, is set to become a free agent as his contract expires soon. Despite a challenging season where Sheffield United conceded 104 league goals, Foderingham had notable performances, including a save praised as ‘incredible’ by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
Although Foderingham is unlikely to be West Ham’s primary goalkeeper, he could serve as a reliable backup for Alphonse Areola. With Lukasz Fabianski’s contract ending next month, it seems likely that the Polish goalkeeper will depart, paving the way for Foderingham’s arrival. While not the most high-profile signing, Foderingham would add valuable depth to West Ham’s goalkeeping options.
