West Ham United signed Mads Hermansen from Leicester City in a deal worth £20 million during the summer transfer window.
It appears that West Ham United are prepared to sell Mads Hermansen in the winter transfer window. According to an update by Graeme Bailey, the Hammers have now made a surprise decision on the future of the struggling goalkeeper. They are ready to get rid of the £20 million summer arrival already. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Mads Hermansen has previously shown his quality with the Foxes, and there is no doubt that he is a reliable goalkeeper. Even though the Dane has not been able to hit top form with West Ham, they should look to be patient with him for now. Selling Hermansen after just a few months at the club could prove to be a mistake, especially when they have spent £20 million on him.
It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. The former Leicester City goalkeeper will be desperate to get back to his best once again. There is no doubt that he has the quality to do well in the Premier League. He could develop into a key player for the club with the right guidance.
Meanwhile, West Ham have started the season poorly. They are currently fighting for their survival in the Premier League. It is no surprise that they are desperate to turn things around. Perhaps they believe that signing quality players in January and getting rid of the underperformers like Mads Hermansen would be a step in the right direction.
Hermansen will look to bounce back
Mads Hermansen will be determined to bounce back strongly in the coming weeks. It will be interesting to see if he can improve on his recent performances and convince the manager to stick with him and give him more opportunities. If he manages to regain his form and confidence, he could be an asset for the London club.
If the Hammers end up selling him in January, they will probably have to accept a loss on their investment, and they would have to spend money to replace him as well. It would be ideal for them to invest in the other areas of the squad instead.
