West Ham are reportedly open to selling Said Benrahma before the closure of the transfer window, with Brentford and Everton interested.

The Algerian winger has been strongly linked with a move away from the London Stadium this month, with Olympique Lyonnais and Olympique Marseille both reportedly making loan offers for Benrahma.

Lauded by Declan Rice as an ‘unbelievable’ player, offload Benrahma appears to be part of West Ham’s transfer strategy this month as the Irons look to bring in a younger replacement.

And according to journalist Alex Crook, David Moyes is open to offers for Benrahma in the final week of the January window, with Brentford and Everton considering late moves.

Crook said on Benrahma’s future at West Ham: “One player to keep an eye on in the final week of the transfer window is unwanted West Ham winger Said Benrahma.

“It’s no secret that David Moyes is open to offers for the Algerian and TalkSport understands Everton as well as Benrahma’s former club Brentford are considering making a late move.”

Said Benrahma leaving West Ham would be for the best

With the Irons linked with a plethora of young attackers this January, it only makes sense that an attacker is now on the agenda for Moyes and the West Ham transfer team.

And selling Benrahma would be the for the best for all parties, with the Algerian international clearly good enough to star in the Premier League yet at a stage in his career when he has outgrown east London.

As a result, a move to Everton or a return to Brentford could be exactly what Benrahma needs to get his career back on track, with the Hammers hopeful of recouping a good fee for the winger.

Indeed, West Ham seem to have a clear plan for their attack in the coming months, and the sooner they can offload Benrahma, the quicker the Irons can execute their vision.
