Mediawatch - 16 May


Our daily look at the Hammers stories in the news includes a couple of transfer rumours with the summer window rapidly approaching...

According to the Evening Standard, the Hammers are waiting on Pablo Zabaleta to decide on his next move with the Manchester City full-back out of contract this summer.

West Ham are believed to have offered the Argentine a two-year deal and are said to be the favourites to land his signature.

Meanwhile, Nigerian forward Henry Onyekuru is believed to be in talks with two Premier League clubs, Sky Sports say.

The 19-year-old has scored 20 goals for Belgian side KAS Eupen this season and this article says he has been watched by the Hammers, Everton and Southampton.

Another name cropping up today is that of Bournemouth forward Josh King.

The Daily Star reckon the Hammers, Tottenham and Newcastle are all interested in the Norway forward, who has 16 goals to his name this season - but a new deal with the Cherries could also be in the offing.
