David Sullivan Could Sign Off on 23-Year West Ham Transfer First as Player Exit Looks Set
West Ham United could be on the verge of making a landmark move in their transfer history, with club co-owner David Sullivan reportedly ready to approve a deal that would break a long-standing precedent. According to multiple sources, the Hammers are considering a transfer that would mark the first of its kind in 23 years – a bold statement of intent during a summer window that has already seen major Premier League shake-ups.
The speculation centers on the potential signing of a high-profile talent from a direct Premier League rival, something West Ham have rarely done in the modern era. Historically, the East London outfit has focused on recruiting from overseas markets or from lower-tier domestic leagues, but this latest pursuit would buck that trend in dramatic fashion. If finalized, it would represent the first time in over two decades that West Ham have prised a key player from a top-six side while the player is still considered in their prime.
Reports suggest that Sullivan’s green light could come within days, signaling the board’s commitment to providing manager Julen Lop
