‘He’ll Never Play First Team Football Again’ ‘Classic West Ham’ Fans React As 19 Year Old Is Linked With Surprise Transfer

‘He’ll Never Play First Team Football Again’ ‘Classic West Ham’ Fans React As 19 Year Old Is Linked With Surprise Transfer

West Ham right-back Jeremy Ngakia is reportedly interesting the likes of Liverpool and Tottenham after the 19-year-old turned down a contract extension with the Hammers.

The London club are still said to be locked in negotiations with the player’s agent ahead of the June 23rd deadline, but supporters on Twitter would not be happy if he leaves for Anfield next month:

It is believed that Ngakia is looking for more first-team football, and it is thought that he would reject the advances from Liverpool if they do follow up their initial approach.

With Trent Alexander-Arnold firmly established as the Premier League leaders’ first-choice right-back, it is clear that the West Ham defender would get very little game time.

If he were to make the switch to Merseyside, though, it would indicate that he is looking for a better contract rather than simply more minutes on the pitch as has been suggested.
