West Ham United have now reached a new agreement which will continue to benefit the club in the long-term.
The Hammers are currently in a difficult financial position after a few years of inefficient spending in the transfer market, and this will frustrate Graham Potter in the summer window.
West Ham need to raise money as they are in a poor position with regards to profit and sustainability rules, and a number of players could leave.
Commercially, there is also room for improvement, but they have now confirmed an extension to one of their sponsorship agreements.

West Ham need to solve Financial Fair Play issues
West Ham have a difficult summer ahead and will need to sell to ease their financial fair play issues, and they need a long-term plan to make their transfer business more sustainable.
The Hammers spent heavily last summer after hiring Julen Lopetegui, and their transfer business was a disaster on and off the pitch.
Older players with little resale value were recruited, and there now needs to be a major clear-out to reduce the average age of the squad.
Last summer’s window has hamstrung the club going forward, and these mistakes have to be avoided in the future to create more financial stability in the future.
