Micah Richards
It is no secret that we have been long-term admirers of Manchester City defender Micah Richards.
It looks unlikely that the former England international will be offered a new contract when he returns from a loan stint at Fiorentina and we could therefore snap him up on a free transfer.
He may be a risk considering his lack of game time in the last two years but the 26-year-old has bags of experience in both the Premiership and Europe.
Wages have been a stumbling block in the past but Richards may be desperate for a deal and West Ham could be the perfect match for him.
