3 West Ham transfer targets that missed their club's preseason friendlies

And it seems that 3 transfer targets may be willing to join the Hammers' as they missed their club's preseason friendlies. On that note, here's a look at the three players that are eager for a move to the London Stadium and have missed their recent friendly matches...

1. Kyle Walker-Peters

Right-back position is one of the biggest concerns at the club with Czech International, Vladimir Coufal the only right-back with the Hammers' at the moment.

Thus, the club is in talks with Southampton for English right-back Kyle Walker-Peters. The fullback is available for close to £20 million and in the recent 7-1 win over Eastleigh, the defender missed the entire match.

This further speculates that the Englishman is interested in joining the Hammers' and has communicated his decision to Southampton to engage in talks with West Ham.
