“West Ham’s SHOCKING Double Raid on Leicester: ‘UNBELIEVABLE’ Star to Join Hermansen in Blockbuster Transfer Heist!”

West Ham United recently secured a £55 million deal with Tottenham Hotspur for the transfer of Ghanaian forward Mohammed Kudus.

With his departure, the Hammers are now turning their attention to finding a suitable replacement, while also aiming to reinforce other key areas of the squad during the summer transfer window.

Manager Graham Potter is prioritizing the addition of an attacking midfielder, but his ambitions go beyond that.

He is also keen on signing a new goalkeeper and a defensive midfielder, as the club looks to strengthen the spine of the team ahead of the new season.

One of the names on West Ham’s radar is Leicester City’s Mads Hermansen.

The Danish goalkeeper has impressed during his time at the King Power Stadium and is now being considered as a long-term solution between the sticks.

Interestingly, Hermansen isn’t the only Leicester player attracting interest from the East London club.

Wilfred Ndidi has also emerged as a top target for West Ham. The Nigerian midfielder is viewed as a strong candidate to fill the defensive midfield role, particularly with the futures of Guido Rodriguez and Edson Alvarez currently uncertain.

Both players may be offloaded this summer, increasing the urgency for West Ham to secure a reliable number six.

Football journalist Ben Jacobs provided further insight into the club’s transfer plans during an appearance on talkSPORT.

He explained: “With Kudus now sold to Spurs, West Ham are expected to have more financial flexibility.

Graham Potter is focused on bringing in an attacking midfielder and a defensive midfielder. Wilfred Ndidi is a name that has come up repeatedly and is being looked at seriously.

He’s also attracting interest from Manchester United, Everton, Real Betis, Juventus, and clubs in Saudi Arabia. So, things could move quickly on that front.”

Jacobs also mentioned that West Ham are eyeing Chelsea’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, another former Leicester City midfielder, as an option for a more advanced midfield role.

As for the goalkeeping position, Hermansen remains a significant target, and West Ham are considering making an offer to Leicester City.

Jacobs continued: “West Ham could return with an approach for Mads Hermansen. Last year, Leicester had set a valuation of around £35 million for him.

However, with time passing and Leicester now in the Championship, West Ham are hoping they can negotiate a deal closer to £20–25 million.

While Hermansen is still under contract until 2028, Leicester’s financial situation and relegation may open the door to a lower fee. But they may still hold out for something above £30 million.”

In the case of Wilfred Ndidi, a move would make a lot of sense for West Ham. Should Rodriguez and Alvarez leave, the Hammers will need a new midfield enforcer.

Ndidi, who Brendan Rodgers once described as “incredible,” brings plenty of Premier League experience and defensive solidity.

Though he may not carry the star power of some targets, his ability to break up play and handle high-pressure situations makes him an appealing addition.

At 28 years old, Ndidi is entering his prime and could prove to be a shrewd acquisition, especially at the right price.

Given Leicester’s relegation and the likelihood of player sales, West Ham may be in a good position to get a deal done.
