To kick off this quiz on what happened with West Ham last week, which out-of-contract striker did many Hammers fans air they would hate to be signed late in the week?

The report claimed that David Moyes’ side is readying a £15 million move for Barcelona striker Martin Braithwaite.

This post then gathered a lot of replies from Hammers fans who were quick to share their thoughts on this latest reported transfer rumour.

Here’s a sample of West Ham fans responding to the post:

Should West Ham sign Martin Braithwaite this summer?

Yes

Yes

No

No

The 28-year-old, who is currently valued at £10.8 million according to Transfermarkt, joined the Spanish giants back in February this year for a fee of £16.2 million. Now after making just three appearances for Barcelona and having yet to register a goal for the club, Braithwaite is already being linked with a move away from the Spanish side. Now that this report linking Braithwaite with a move to West Ham has surfaced on Twitter, this has given lots of Hammers fans the opportunity to share their doubt over the potential transfer switch.

What do we think?

It appears that these West Ham fans are a bit suspicious over Braithwaite being linked with a move to the London Stadium. Given the short length of time he’s been at Barcelona for, it’s understandable why they would think this way.
