With Ben Johnson and Angelo Ogbonna having already left, up to eight West Ham players might be sold this summer, according to the Athletic.
The media outlet claimed on May 17 that Mohammed Kudus and Lucas Paqueta, who Manchester City will look at signing over the coming weeks, might be the two players on their way out.
Thilo Kehrer, Said Benrahma, Nayef Aguerd, and Flynn Downes are the other four players who are willing to go.
In the upcoming weeks, West Ham will undergo a summer transfer upheaval.
Despite their wish to keep Paqueta, the Hammers might have to let him go because of the possible financial and competitive advantages of a transfer, as well as his desire to play for a championship-winning team.
It comes as no surprise that Manchester City wants the Brazilian, who is an extremely gifted and adaptable player who has been a vital member of West Ham since his arrival.
Kudus, however, needs to be kept around at all costs.
The Ghanaian has shown tremendous potential and has been a standout performer since joining the club
Tim Steidten is unlikely to let him go easily after going above and beyond to sign him because of his goal-scoring prowess, inventiveness, and adaptability.
Regarding players like Kehrer, Benrahma, Aguerd, and Downes, their possible exits may provide the club with more money to reinvest in the team.
Though their sales may assist the club bolster other sections of the team, these players have not had the same constant influence as Kudus and Paqueta.
