🔥 West Ham Transfer Buzz: Steven Bergwijn on the Radar! ⚒️🔄
In the latest transfer scoop, West Ham United is reportedly eyeing a move for former Tottenham Hotspur winger Steven Bergwijn, as revealed by transfer insider Fabrizio Romano. The Italian journalist shared, “I understand Steven Bergwijn is one of the top targets for West Ham in the January transfer window in case they will be able to find budget after outgoings.”
🤔 Moyes Prefers Versatile Winger:
Manager David Moyes is said to be leaning towards adding a versatile winger rather than a striker to the squad this January. Bergwijn, having previously played for Tottenham, offers a skillfull and flexible option that aligns with Moyes’ vision for the team.
Bergwijn’s Impressive Stint with Ajax:
After a mixed spell at Tottenham, Bergwijn returned to the Netherlands with Ajax in 2022. His time in Amsterdam has proven fruitful, boasting impressive statistics of 12 goals and five assists in 32 league appearances last season. This season, despite Ajax’s current standings, Bergwijn continues to shine with seven goals and two assists. Romano adds, “More Premier League and Saudi clubs are also keen on Bergwijn as he could leave Ajax in case of a good offer.”
Bergwijn would join former Ajax stars Edson Alvarez and Mohammed Kudus who have already made the switch to The London Stadium.
🔄 Outgoings at West Ham: Benrahma, Cornet, and Urgent Reinforcements:
West Ham is actively seeking to offload Said Benrahma and Maxwel Cornet, although no permanent transfer offers have been received for either player. With Mohammed Kudus at the African Cup of Nations and Michail Antonio sidelined due to injury, reinforcements are urgently needed for The Hammers.
📆 Transfer Window Deadline Approaching:
West Ham has a couple of weeks before their clash against Sheffield United on January 21st. Fans hope that any necessary transfer activity, including potential additions like Bergwijn, will be completed by then. Stay tuned for more updates as the January transfer window unfolds! ⏳⚽ #WestHam #TransferRumors #StevenBergwijn #COYI

Neutral on Bergwijn…
If Tim keeps going back to 1 or 2 teams for players what exactly is he doing for the other 364 days? Dr Who conferences? Also, he could go to Ajax on Eurostar – the plane thing is narcissistic.
Let's face it Gonzo @exUnemployee is really the best man as ITK anybody else MEH !!!!!
Bergwijn. is a quality player!
Is Bergwijn an upgrade on Cornet? We will never know as Cornet hasn't had a chance has he? Bergwijn flopped at Spurs. Maybe he his just not suited to the PL. I guess we will have to trust Tim Steitden on this one. Timo Werner – 2 goals all season. I think we dodged a bullet there to be honest
Anderson would be better in this squad and I wouldn’t be surprised if he is on the list if primary targets can’t be reeled in.
If old Burger Wine didn’t do it under the negative Conte what makes you think he will do it under our negative cont? 🤣
I suppose his stats look slightly better than Benny’s but A that’s not a high bar, B he’s playing in a vastly weaker league and C he’s playing in a team that actually attacks. We would be basically selling Benny to by Benny by the looks of things? Doesn’t seem a TS type target from the outside.
He can play just behind as well…he’s direct and does his stuff fast.
All for it. I hope this rumour has legs.
My real fear this window is that history repeats itself from a couple of years ago, where we are in a good place to kick on in the league AND the Europa League BUT, we fail to strengthen.
Surely we can't let that happen again. It won't do us any favours in trying to keep our best players in the Summer if we don't strengthen and we should already be looking at replacing Antonio (as good a servant as he has been) in addition to anyone else
So why don’t West Ham have a link up with Ajax, it’d be a great place for our youngsters on loan. Especially the standard our kids have been at.
Getting slightly concerned that Tim jets around the place and always ends up at Ajax?!?! Is he secretly working for feyenoord? If the bergwijn transfer comes off and he goes back to that particular well then I'm gonna try and get a job as a DoF, I can pick a team and check their squad on Wikipedia. I can also bullshit with the best of em, hence why I'd be more qualified than Moyes for transfers!!!
Im also partial to swanning around in learjets (i think?) Although I'll stoop to a Gulfstream i suppose?!?!
Bergwijn is useless. Looked bang average for spuds. Wouldnt want him on a free let alone for money.
I would be quite optimistic about this one if it happens, so long as it is under £30m
Having said that it would be nice to buy players outside of Ajax, unless this is our master plan now 😂
bergwijn would allow the benrahma transfer out to happen, so might be beneficial for all parties
you have to ask though, given what has happened with more than half the attackers brought in under moyes, why any sane winger or striker would sign for us? it can't just be the higher wages?
He's not good enough inmo
"He did not have the most progressive of managers". Well definitely not a problem here then…
No thanks , would much rather Hugo Eketike on loan with option to buy
Tbh Gonzo, his English is better than your English half the time, never mind your Italian! 😉😂😂⚒️⚒️
Don't buy him he is shiuuiii8iiiit.Bergwin.nononononononononon9.n9t a chance.
What's your thoughts on Ernest Nuamah (Lyon)?
Why are West Ham keen to sell Aguerd?
Is David Moyes a progressive and attacking manager ? Just saying ….
Playes well "under a progressive attacking manager" you do realise the wank stain we have in charge at the moment and his philosophy on progressive attacking football don't ya?
Another player brought in, to become disillusioned and leave in a years time for another huge loss. 👏 Brilliant analysis.
He's cup tied though
Wtf
Really excited about Bergwijn. Think it would be a really smart piece of business. Apparently he’s a really good character, hence the reason Ajax made him captain
He'd feel at home with a few mates in the team… possibly feels like he has something to prove… i don't know about this but wouldn't complain
Why does this one not excite me
Theres something about him that just makes me think MEH
Cant put my finger on it
Agree on lazy "no good signings in January" comments. Easy to answer in 2 words: Bowen; Soucek.
Can Bergwijn track back? That’s what ruined Benny.
Werner? He wouldn’t fit in Moyes’s style.
I heard a Rumour that Roberto was coming back as well, too cover in goal 😁
Flopped at Spurs & Ajax fans not impressed. So why are we going after him? Bang average
Bergwijn and Kudus duo🔥❤
Why do we want a Tottenham reject who failed there and at Ajax??
3rd time unlucky? Could be one too many from the same club, remembering Kral didn’t work out. He doesn’t look like a big improvement on what we already have in that position. Hopefully this is a distraction from who we’re really interested in.
I'd like to see us go in for Jan-Niklas Beste from FC Heidenheim in the Bundesliga. Has a wand of a left foot, has 5 goals with 7 assists from 14 games this season, averages a goal or an assist every other game during his career and would probably cost around £15m. Absolute bargain!
After todays performance we need to stop eyeing and getting some bodies in asap.
Also worth noting he’s flopped in the Dutch league too
Are there many home grown LW or left sided forwards that we could be looking at and despite gaps in defence especially following today with mavropanos would we want Worrall surely Kilman would be a better option and is premier league proven but 40 mill quid more ?
Never liked Bergwijns personality, i think he is not a good fit for the WH dressing room. Please no.
Deffo a upgrade on benrahama so why not seems vertasile aswell
Idk if he's improved but WestHam should look for an alternative. He's not clinical at all. I used to watch Ajax when Kudus was there and you could tell the difference is not even close.
