West Ham United midfielder Tomas Soucek has been linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks.
Journalist Paul Brown has revealed to Give Me Sport that the player might be willing to leave the club in the near future. Brown believes that West Ham have already signed a number of midfielders this summer and Soucek could be phased out in order to accommodate the new signings in the starting lineup.
Apparently, West Ham are hoping to hold talks with the player regarding a new contract and it remains to be seen how the situation develops. Brown claims that he might not be at the club next season.
The 28-year-old has been a useful player for West United since joining the club, but the Hammers have already signed quality midfielders like Edson Alvarez and James Ward-Prowse earlier this summer. Both players are certainly better than Soucek and they deserve to start regularly.
The 28-year-old midfielder will not want to sit on the bench at West Ham and a move away could be ideal for all parties. The Hammers should look to cash in on him and bring in a talented young central midfielder who can be an understudy to the likes of Alvarez and Ward-Prowse.
Soucek has shown his quality in the Premier League since joining the London club and he is unlikely to have any shortage of suitors. It will be interesting to see where he ends up in the coming months.
