Nuno aims to add more attacking threat to Hammers squad
West Ham United manager Nuno Espirito Santo is seeking to strengthen his squad's attacking options despite the recent signing of midfielder Arne Engels. The club is currently adjusting to life in the Championship following their relegation.
Why it matters
The club's transfer strategy is critical for their goal of returning to the Premier League, reflecting the high-stakes nature of professional football management.
West Ham United boss Nuno Espirito Santo says the club needs to further bolster their attacking threat despite bringing in Celtic midfielder Arne Engels from for a Championship record fee of £22m.
He is the fourth new signing since the club's relegation from the Premier League.
Engels' arrival follows Brighton defender Joel Veltman , Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Manor Solomon and the permanent signing of Keiber Lamadrid after his loan move from Deportivo La Guaira in January.
"We need players, especially in the offensive part of the team," Nuno said after his side were pegged back from 2-0 up to draw 2-2 in their Championship opener at Burnley.
