“West Ham have always been terrible at selling players”
Apart from Declan Rice’s £105 million sale to Arsenal during the summer, West Ham supporters believe their team has a poor track record of obtaining competitive player fees.
When Marko Arnautovic was transferred to ultra-wealthy China for a pittance of £22.5 million, he was among the most feared all-action attackers in the world.
With West Ham, Dimitri Payet lit up the Premier League and was nominated for a Ballon d’Or. But the Hammers only received £25 million for his sale to Marseille. In both situations, West Ham had some degree of leverage.

However, there is something Moyes could do to save Aguerd’s Hammers future…
Only way to save Nayef Aguerd’s West Ham career
I believe Moyes ought to remove the Moroccan from the firing line.
It’s time to play him as a left-back since he lacks the focus, discipline, and positional awareness necessary to function as a center defender in the Premier League.
Emerson Palmieri would need to be moved to the left wing if Moyes attempts this, which would be another great option at this time as Lucas Paqueta is currently injured.
It would be good to see Paqueta in his natural position at number 10, with Emerson sticking out wide to the left, even after he returns.Aguerd, meanwhile, appears to possess every quality required to be a left-back in the Premier League.
The former Rennes player is a fierce tackler who moves really quickly. I believe he would be far more effective as a left-back than a central defender because he possesses the pace and energy necessary to move up and down the left hand flank for the full 90 minutes.
Moyes must act quickly to implement that particular adjustment if he hopes to save Nayef Aguerd’s West Ham career.
