West Ham looking to bring in up to two fresh faces in January

West Ham's vice-chairman Karren Brady has confirmed the Championship high-flyers are looking to strengthen in the January transfer window. The Hammers have responded well to relegation with manager Sam Allardyce helping the club to joint-top with Southampton in England's second tier. West Ham have no plans to rest on their laurels and Brady believes with up to two fresh faces at Upton Park the club can solidify their promotion push. The club have already seen bids for players rejected while Brady has also revealed they have turned down offers from elsewhere for their stars.

Strengthen

"I think the board took a view that we wanted a manager who really had the right discipline, the right football and the right mentality to grind us out of this league and I think Sam's definitely brought that," she told Sky Sports. "He's definitely brought some structure, planning and process. We're looking to strengthen the squad in the window. "We've had offers for players that we won't accept and we've had offers to buy players that we've had turned down so it's a January merry-go-round at the moment. We need one or two to seal our final push. "Funds are available. We never put a price on how much. Obviously we discuss that with the manager, but sadly we don't discuss that with Sky Sports News. "One thing we're very mindful of is West Ham needs its own stability. It's got its own debts and financial problems that we've inherited. We need to think very carefully about the players that we bring in, not just short term but ones that can make a long-term contribution to West Ham's playing squad. We'll see what happens." When quizzed whether Huddersfield's free-scoring striker Jordan Rhodes was on the club's radar, Brady replied: "I think that's a far better question for the manager, not the vice-chairman."
