[골닷컴] Reporter Man-Sung Han = West Ham United, who recently entered fourth place in the English Premier League, has completely signed second-tier striker Said Ben Rahma.
West Ham announced on the official website of the club on the 28th (Korean time) that it has completely signed Ben Lahma, which it hired from Brentford last summer, for a transfer fee of about 20 million pounds (current exchange rate, about 30.5 billion won). With this, British TV’Sky Sports’ reported that West Ham is likely to have hurried to sign Ben Rahma in full to prepare for second line striker Jesse Lingard at Manchester United (Man United) this winter.

The Premier League limits the number of players that can be on loan in England for each club each season to two. West Ham have signed a loan from Watford early this season for defender Craig Dawson and West Ham second line striker Ben Rahma. West Ham coach David Moyes this winter had to sign either Dawson or Ben Lahma to sign Lingard, a former Manchester United coach. However, Hwang Hee-chan, another offensive resource that West Ham has expressed interest in this winter, is not related to the regulations as he is playing for Leipzig, a German Bundesliga club. Thanks to this, West Ham can also promote Hwang Hee-chan on loan regardless of whether or not the signing of Lingard is successful.
‘Sky Sports’ said, “West Ham are in talks with Bundesliga club Leipzig over whether to sign Hwang Hee-chan.”

Meanwhile, Leipzig coach Julian Nagelsmann said in a recent official press conference that Hwang Hee-chan had requested a loan transfer, but expressed his hope that he would remain on the team this winter.
