With the January transfer window approaching, West Ham are being linked with an ever-growing list of potential reinforcements.
Strikers such as Ivan Toney and Franculino Dju continue to dominate headlines, while former Wolves star Adama Traoré is rumoured to be on Nuno Espírito Santo’s radar for a reunion.
In defence, youngsters like Myles Lewis-Skelly have also been mentioned as the Hammers seek both quality and depth across the pitch.
Now, yet another name has emerged as a genuine option.
West Ham Interested in Garner
According to ExWHUEmployee, via One Football, the club have set their sights on James Garner, with the insider describing him as “a player of interest at this stage.”
The Everton midfielder — once a highly rated Manchester United academy talent — has developed into a key performer since David Moyes returned to Goodison Park. His versatility and consistency have earned widespread praise.
Moyes himself has been blown away by Garner’s level, saying: “He’s been fantastic since I came in. I didn’t realise, probably, how good he was. He has been so good.”
Rumours around Merseyside suggest that Garner’s contract may be entering its final months, potentially opening the door for an opportunistic move. Aston Villa, Newcastle, Nottingham Forest, and now West Ham are all monitoring the situation closely.
Whether West Ham push forward remains to be seen, but Nuno’s interest in the 24-year-old highlights the club’s determination to refresh their midfield options.
