West Ham United boss Graham Potter has made his first steps to strengthening his squad in the January transfer window, according to Sky Sports – with the Hammers set to complete a deal that would see midfielder Ezechiel Banzuzi join the club in a potential £13million move from Belgian side OH Leuven.
Potter joined the club at the start of the month after almost two years out of work after being sacked by Chelsea back in April 2023, and he’s started relatively well in east London with one win from two games in the Premier League. There is still work to do after Julen Lopetegui’s dismal tenure at the London Stadium, but Potter appears to be underway in the transfer market – with youngster Banzuzi set to join the club imminently.
Speaking on Sky Sports News, presenter David Garrido stated that the Hammers were set to get their first signing of the Potter era underway, with Banzuzi set to have a medical in the UK over the next 24 hours. He said:
