West Ham in talks over defensive duo open to London Stadium move as three Hammers players closing in on exit
TBR Football can exclusively confirm that West Ham United are currently in talks over two international defenders.
The Hammers have been relatively quiet in the summer transfer window, with just one new deal struck in recent weeks.
Young Scottish striker Daniel Cummings will be joining West Ham on a free transfer from Celtic.
A second player – Mohamadou Kante – will also be arriving at the London Stadium, but that deal was agreed last summer.
However, West Ham have now set their sights on two players who are both keen on a switch to E20 – while three players are in line to leave.

El Hadji Malick Diouf and Oscar Mingueza open to West Ham move
TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey can confirm that West Ham have made approaches for international defenders El Hadji Malick Diouf and Oscar Mingueza.
The Senegal international is currently with Slavia Prague whilst Mingueza, who operates on the right, is currently with Celta Vigo.
Both have been identified by West Ham as their top defensive targets.
Diouf, 20, has been on the radar of a host of Premier League clubs for much of the last 12 months – including Crystal Palace, who have previously held talks.
| Competition | Appearances | Goals | Assists | Yellow cards | Red cards | Minutes |
| Chance Liga | 24 | 7 | 3 | 3 | – | 1.916′ |
| Europa League | 8 | – | 1 | 2 | – | 598′ |
| Champions League Qu. | 4 | – | – | 2 | – | 345′ |
| Chance Liga Champion Gr. | 3 | – | – | 1 | – | 140′ |
| MOL Cup | 2 | – | – | – | – | 75′ |
| Total 24/25 | 41 | 7 | 4 | 8 | – | 3.074′ |
Now we understand that West Ham have held talks with Slavia Prague about a prospective deal for Diouf, who was previously linked with Crystal Palace.
We are told that Diouf would be interested in making the move to the London Stadium, but West Ham and Slavia’s valuation of the player are somewhat different – although talks are only at a very early stage.
The same is true of Mingueza – who was a target for Aston Villa in the January window.
The Spain international has been identified by West Ham’s recruitment team and they have also had talks about a possible deal for him. He is also open to a switch to the Hammers.
