Okay, so we are halfway there and have currently completed only the one deal this month with centre back George John joining on an initial 2 month loan with a view to a permanent switch. We remain in the hunt for at the very least 1 further addition but are hoping for two more players to arrive before the close of the window later this month.
It appears that Maeda who had a successful trial, regardless to widespread reports that he didn’t do well, could not agree terms on a deal which would have seen him join Whu. I’m told Big Sam was very impressed with the Japanese born striker but the player failed to agree on the terms in place and has now travelled back to his present club. That deal I can now confirm is dead.
Talksport have today run a story linking us with Yannick Sagbo, a striker who I honestly don’t know a great deal about. He is the half brother of Guy Demel and Big Sam has confirmed that we have watched him play but no further than that. Keep a look out for developments on this one.
My source this morning confirmed our interest in Burnley striker Jay Rodriguez and also Watford striker Marvin Sordell with bids in for both players, that being a second bid of an improved £2.5m for Sordell. We currently await an answer in regards to both players. Reports regarding Sharp’s transfer collapse to Leicester have currently come to nothing as no further offer from Whu has gone in as of yet. I’ll let you know if that changes.
Celik, a wide player who is currently a free agent is still hoped that a deal can be struck but there has been no further developments on this at the moment that I can report.
January is certainly proving to be an extremely difficult window to attract players into the club but I can assure fans that Whu are trying there very best to get the players in but it hasn’t been easy. They remain optimistic though that a few deals can be done soon. Keep on the look out!
On a side note, anyone else see Karen Brady on Sky Sports News today. She has spoken out saying that we may opt against putting a bid in for the OS and instead stay at Upton Park and try to push plans ahead for redevelopments to the ground. Well DG said on twitter that this was a no go. Will be very interesting to see what goes on there.

West Ham United are reportedly interested in signing Aston Villa midfielder Fabian Delph.
The 20-year-old is available on loan but is believed to favour a move back to former club Leeds United.
Delph left Elland Road in 2009 for almost £8m but has suffered a series of injuries at Villa Park.
Do we really need another midfielder and do we really need another sick-note
