There’s only one place to start this morning and that’s the official arrival of Mikel Merino from Real Sociedad. It’s not exactly a bolt from the blue, but certainly a welcome addition to a squad that needs it after the departures of Emile Smith Rowe and Fabio Vieira from midfield. He’s 28 years of age, with plenty of experience having …

West Ham United’s transfer business is still not completed and they are eyeing one more deal before the transfer deadline.
