Welcome back to KUMB's latest transfer rumour round-up - five stories from around the web featuring players potentially on West Ham's shopping list, or current Hammers on the radar of other clubs...
Callum Wilson
The experienced striker, a free transfer since 30 June is set to sign a short-term contract with Premier League side Brentford.
Wilson, who spent just the one season at West Ham, during which he scored seven goals in 35 appearances has agreed to join the Bees on a one-year deal. He is expected to undergo a medical tomorrow (Wednesday).

Simon Adingra
Today's only potential incoming link is that of Sunderland's Ivory Coast winger, who has a lengthy contract with the Black Cats which ties him to the club until 2030.
As well as West Ham, Premier League newcomers Ipswich and Hull City have also expressed interest in the 24-yerar-old, as have Serie A's Roma and the Bundesliga's RB Leipzig. Discussions between "the player and West Ham's management" are reported to have already taken place. Adingra joined Sunderland from Brighton in July 2025 for a fee of €24 million.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka
The Hammers have slapped a £25million price tag on the right back, who joined West Ham in a £15million switch from Manchester United two years ago next month it has been claimed.
Wan-Bissaka, who was on the losing side when the Democratic Republic of Congo were knocked out of the World Cup by England last week in the Round of 32, wants to leave West Ham United in the wake of the club's relegation to the Championship. Premier League champions Arsenal are understood to have made an initial enquiry.

Crysencio Summerville
The Dutch international's value has skyrocketed since he played such a vital role in the Netherlands short but sweet World Cup campaign, during which he scored against Japan and Sweden.
Purchased from Leeds United last summer for a fee of £25million, West Ham are hoping to double the fee should the 24-year-old move on this summer, as he is widely expected to do in order to enhance his chances of retaining his international spot. Liverpool are reported to have joined Chelsea and Manchester United in the race to sign him.

Edson Alvarez
Like Wan-Bissaka, the Mexican international was also on the losing side following a meeting with England at the World Cup - the substitute being part of his nation's 3-2 defeat in the Aztec Stadium.
And like the defender, Alvarez too sees no future at West Ham. Consequently the 28-year-old is currently trying to secure a season-long loan move to Bundesliga outfit Cologne, who may consider a loan deal with an obligation to buy. He remains contracted to West Ham until the summer of 2028.
