# West Ham: Report shares Januzaj update with proposal made

**[West Ham United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-ham-news/) manager David Moyes has personally set his sights on one of his former stars as reports out of Spain share an update involving Real Sociedad forward Adnan Januzaj.**

### The Lowdown: Hammers eye attacking additions…

The Hammers are reportedly after fresh additions in the attacking areas with names like Raphinha of Leeds United and Keane Lewis-Potter of Hull City linked most recently ([90min)](https://www.90min.com/posts/west-ham-close-to-completing-nayef-aguerd-transfer).

West Ham are aiming to keep their place among the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/)‘s elite having enjoyed a quite simply sensational rise up the table over these last two seasons.

Moyes’ men only just missed out on a Europa League-qualifying spot on the final day of 2021/2022, instead having to settle for a place in the Conference League, and the east Londoners are seemingly determined to avoid a repeat.

### The Latest: Januzaj ‘proposal’ made…

\[freshpress-poll id=”399165″\]

According to Diario de Sevilla, via [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/west-ham-winger-agenda-moyes-main-backer-offer-already-submitted/), West Ham are one of a few teams who have ‘put forward proposals’ to Januzaj as the Belgian eyes an exit from Real Sociedad.

The Irons have allegedly made a personal offer to Moyes’ former player at Man United who could depart the Reale Arena later this month on a Bosman deal.

His contract looks set to run out and Moyes is said to be personally backing a West Ham move.

### The Verdict: Right option?

Once called ‘[amazing](https://www.mancunianmatters.co.uk/sport/05022014-hes-amazing-harry-redknapp-praises-manchester-uniteds-adnan-januzaj-as-young-star-celebrates-19th-birthday/)‘ by former top flight manager Harry Redknapp, whilst it didn’t quite work out for him at Old Trafford, Januzaj has since earned praise for his Sociedad performances.

Ex-United star Paul Scholes even hailed an ‘excellent’ and ‘brilliant’ outing from the 27-year-old during the 2020/2021 Europa League campaign (via[talkSPORT)](https://talksport.com/football/840577/manchester-united-paul-scholes-never-understood-adnan-januzaj-failed/), and on a free deal, this could well be a fairly low-risk move by Moyes and West Ham.
