# West Ham eyeing three Manchester United players

**[West Ham](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-ham-transfer-rumours/) manager [David Moyes](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tag/david-moyes/) is already eyeing moves for Manchester United trio Harry Maguire, Anthony Martial and Scott McTominay this summer, [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-west-ham-keen-on-signing-three-man-united-stars/) report.**

### The Lowdown: Supporter unrest

The Hammers fell to a 4-0 [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) defeat at Brighton on Saturday afternoon, with Moyes coming in for criticism from the away end as the club’s battle to avoid the drop continued.

Some who travelled [chanted](https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/west-ham-fans-turn-on-david-moyes-after-heavy-defeat-at-brighton/118548082.html) ‘you don’t know what you’re doing’ and ‘you’re getting sacked in the morning’ at Moyes during the game, however, the [board](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-ham-news/west-ham-david-moyes-manager-update-board/) are still behind the Scot and are seemingly planning for the summer window.

### The Latest: Transfer update

[FI reporter Pete O’Rourke](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-west-ham-keen-on-signing-three-man-united-stars/) shared a story in the last 48 hours regarding West Ham’s transfer plans.

He said that Moyes is a big admirer of the Manchester United trio and they have been shortlisted as potential targets, with the Hammers keeping tabs on their situation at Old Trafford.

### The Verdict: Big money

The club have massively backed Moyes this season with a total spend of €194m (£171m), as per [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/west-ham-united/alletransfers/verein/379), but haven’t got the results to show for it, and moves for Maguire, Martial and McTominay could also come at a cost.

All three haven’t been regulars under Erik ten Hag during the current campaign, however, they are on a combined salary of £500,000-a-week, as per [Spotrac](https://www.spotrac.com/epl/manchester-united-fc/payroll/).

Maguire and Martial are actually on more money than [any Hammers player](https://www.spotrac.com/epl/west-ham-united-fc/payroll/), so bringing them to the London Stadium would be another strong backing for the 59-year-old, so could be ones to watch, providing Moyes remains in the dugout for the rest of the season.
