In a dramatic turn of events at the Copa America, Edson Alvarez, the dynamic midfielder from West Ham, suffered an injury during the match between Mexico and Jamaica. The extent of the injury remains unconfirmed, but early indications suggest a possible hamstring strain that could keep Alvarez out for up to ten weeks. This development throws a wrench in the ongoing transfer talks with Manchester United. Will this setback derail his move, or is it just a minor hiccup in the transfer saga? Stay tuned as we dive into the implications of Alvarez’s injury on his future at West Ham and the potential transfer to Manchester United. Get all the details on how this might affect the preseason plans and more.

Can we not give this Edson Alvarez to Man U any traction there are social media player fishing/tapping up, Al we ned to do if put a 70/80M prize tag on him and they will walk a way faster than you can say, how much
Push on? It appears Steidten is just here to oversee a policy of selling our best players and replacing them with nobodies,were a good bet to go down.
Two players who need tying down are bowen and kudus 😊 there are two best players
Bowen indefinitely needs captaincy at west ham
Bowen and kudus need guarantee on team sheet
How can man u transfer be in doubt, when there hasn't even been a bid from them, ridiculous
West Ham really are a stepping stone club if we go back I hardly remember a player saying no I wanna stay here I believe in the project there head always turns something at our club needs to change ⚒️
Just tell man utd what they told us when we wanted lingard. We can't sell players to our rivals!
Hi Gonzo the French defensive midfielder we were in two seasons ago has 1 year left on his contract for 20-25 mil is available
Unfortunate but this is why you place value in a strong youth team and an academy. There is so much competition from young players but are looking for pricey gems abroad. We have rough diamonds here that can be molded.
Potts just got Supporters Player of the Year and Young Player of Year at Wycombe, so he is doing well. Downes, Orford and Earthy should be given a pathway into the first team squad. We also have Scarles at left-back, Casey at centre-back and Johnson at right-back who should be our backup, if not coached into being first team as the seniors age out. If we sign foreign players to add depth, then why should the youth sign new contracts? If we're going to promote from within and retain our youth players, the club needs to show faith in the youth team and that the club has changed.
I want the club/manager to come out and say "it's OK we have depth, we have academy and young players that we are bringing through". It's also a major factor in how we can compete with these hostile FFP rules. As you say, we can't afford to add depth to all of the required positions, so let's not try to do it! Even if we drop a few points initially, it's financially worth it long term.
When will we start signing players??
Too much football! Sorry international football leaves me cold, whats v point!!
You're not a medical man, but at least you know your ass from your elbow…
A man like you would not sit around on his elbows all day.
At a, time we need to strengthen a threadbare squad,, seems the window is more about players leaving than any signings or potential signings. I'm worried
When you have an owner who closed down the academy at his former club, you know you have a regime in charge who simply don't value youth players so nothing will change until Sullivan and Brady clear off. Sullivan is happy to pay stupid wages to players who his agent mates identify so everyone gets a nice little pay off yet he offers insulting wages to a home grown player like Johnson.
Nothing changes in terms of transfer dealings as a midfielder should’ve been high on the list of priorities anyway after a couple of centre halves. It’s just simply a timely reminder, if the club wasn’t already taking it seriously.
We saw how the midfield struggled physically last season when one of Alvarez or Soucek was missing. We need another in.
I’d be tempted to go in for Ndidi on a free. He can play DM and CM.
How’s Coufal, our best defender and most important attacking player, not a main stay????
Starting to get a little concerned where Tropical Tim, the "Project", is maybe doing this launch into players we have/may have not, heard of, for the optics of it. But to flush down the toilet players that have been great, who have shown and proved, and would fit Lopetegui's form of play, it is worrisome at the moment. Alvarez can't go. We need a rebuild not a complete demolition of the squad.
Suddenly Man Utd have become self appointed "Gods greatest gift to football!" Tell them to go & do one!
I wish the club would come straight out and say Alvarez is NOT for sale
I feel like Lopey is trying to build the squad around Bowen Kudus and Alvarez
Man Utd wanted £40+ million for Maguire so all we need to do is say £80-100m. That is way to rich for them with the rebuild they need.
I suspect Edson will be out for a while. So we keeping Downes?
It's easy to forget that 99% of these rumours are bollox
130 people we've been linked to
That's 130 clubs who think they're losing players
Only 1 has
Less than 1%
Give Downes his Shot
70 – 80 million see ya later Alvarez …..Tim start the jet up were off , next
Cool tshirt gonzo – where you get it?
Can’t sell to our rivals 😂
Heard rumours that if Man Utd would offer 50-60 mil then the club would consider it
