A lot of West Ham United have responded to a report from Jacob Steinberg that claims that West Ham are in talks with Barcelona over right-back Moussa Wague.
The 21-year-old, though, is also talking to Nice as the deadline for transfers approaches.
Will Wague end up at West Ham by the end of the day?
Yes
No
The right-back, who is valued at £6.75m by Transfermarkt, moved to Barcelona in the summer of 2018 after impressing for Senegal in the World Cup.
However, since then, he has only made six appearances for the club and now looks like he is going to leave.
This news has gone down well with these Hammers supporters who would like to see Wague at the club.

What do we think?
David Moyes confirmed in his press conference that the club had failed to bring in a right-back, but Steinberg believes that Wague is still a target for the Hammers though they face competition for his signature.
The Hammers look to have sealed the signing of Jarrod Bowen with the 23-year-old undergoing a medical at the club now, though, it is said personal terms are proving to be a sticking point.
If they resolve this and add Wague, then the Hammers would have had a good deadline day.
