West Ham could sign a big six defender for a cut price in January.

Despite signing Kilman, Todibo, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, West Ham’s defensive record this season is still absolutely atrocious.

While many believe it’s down to Julen Lopetegui setup and the space he leaves in midfield, there’s no denying the back line should be doing a better job.

As a result, the Hammers are believed to be assessing options for the January transfer window, with them reportedly being keen on signing Victor Lindelof.

The Swedish defender is in his eighth season in the Premier League, but with his contract expiring in the Summer Manchester United are keen to cash in.

If the reports of a £6.5 million price tag are true, our Irons should steer clear until we can get him for free. We’re likely to have an extremely limited budget for January and it’s important as much funds as possible are put towards signing a forward. Yes the defence hasn’t been good enough but, again, I believe that’s mainly the result of poor tactics.
