According to an update by ExWHUemployee, West Ham United are monitoring Philadelphia Union left-back Kai Wagner – with the defender priced at around £3.5 million and well within GSB’s price range.
Wagner, who has burst on to the MLS scene in recent seasons, has attracted interest from a number of Premier League clubs including West Ham as the board reportedly keep tabs.
The 23-year-old, as well as being hugely promising, comes at a meagre price which could entice David Gold and co into a move – prompting many Hammers to react sarcastically on social media.
Lamenting the club’s small budget, plenty of supporters had their say over the lack of investment in star players – with this latest move drawing remarks amid concerns West Ham do not possess enough strength in depth.

Where has the budget gone from the sales of Diangana and the wages saved on Anderson…we have gone from £32m offered for Tarkowski to some xfactor left back? #gsbout pic.twitter.com/APltdG8O88
