West Ham may have a problem on their hands as the club prepare for the January transfer<\/a> window.<\/p>\n

New boss Nuno Espirito Santo has begun the process of discovering which players will form part of his Hammers squad and which he\u2019ll look to move on.<\/p>\n

And one of those thought most likely to depart the London Stadium<\/a> is Guido Rodriguez, who appears to have no future under the new West Ham boss.<\/p>\n

Nuno\u2019s Plans Leave Rodriguez on the Fringe<\/p>\n

Even though Nuno has only taken charge of two games since succeeding Graham Potter, he has given plenty of hints that Rodriguez is not part of his plans.<\/p>\n

The Argentinian has only made the bench on one occasion, despite Tom\u00e1\u0161 Sou\u010dek being suspended. Espirito Santo has instead used Freddie Potts and Andy Irving as midfield substitutes, which strongly suggests there will be no game time for Rodriguez.<\/p>\n

However, Hammers bosses will not find it easy to offload the midfielder, who seems perfectly happy to stay put in East London.<\/p>\n

Speaking to an agent this lunchtime, Claret & Hugh<\/a> were told: \u201cRodriguez had five interested clubs in the summer but didn\u2019t want to move.\u201d
\u201cOne offer from Saudi would have given him an extra \u00a330k per week, but he said no.\u201d<\/p>\n

This response came after C&H asked whether West Ham were likely to move on certain players in the winter transfer window. Our source added:<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ll have to move players on, but you can\u2019t force someone out if he doesn\u2019t want to go. Their recruitment has been a real mess. They hardly ever make a profit on players.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"West Ham may have a problem on their hands as the club prepare for the January transfer window.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":201656,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-201655","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/201655","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=201655"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/201655\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/201656"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=201655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=201655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=201655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
