JUST NOW: The formal West ham top player is back and…..

With star Carlos Forbs expected to return to the Premier League, Tim Steidten’s masterful move at West Ham has been made abundantly evident.

Over the years, West Ham has experienced several “sliding doors,” particularly in the transfer market.

However, the Hammers have gotten the short straw far too frequently.

However, the data thus far does not support Tim Steidten’s position as West Ham’s technical director and head of recruitment.

Following the German’s arrival in the summer, West Ham appeared to be having trouble adding players, which worried supporters.

Steidten’s initial target was supposed to be Carlos Borges, the “wonderkid” from Man City who is now known as Carlos Forbs.

That was before Ajax intervened at the last minute to “steal him” from West Ham’s control. The Dutch titans believed that, at least at the time.

Ajax was ecstatic about themselves.

But when we got to the end of the window, the Hammers were the ones who were laughing the loudest.

West Ham took advantage of Ajax’s need to balance the books after signing Forbs and other players, in a move that was obviously planned.

Steidten’s friendship with fellow German and Ajax director of football Sven Mislintat at the time made it possible for West Ham to buy Mohammed Kudus and Edson Alvarez, two of Ajax’s top players, for a combined bargain of £72 million.
