West Ham news: Neil Lennon's Oliver Ntcham message and the Hammers' transfer priority

It is transfer deadline day, which means clubs now have a matter of hours to complete their deals ahed of the end of season run-in.

West Ham have already bought in two new players during the window, with Tomas Soucek joining Darren Randolph in arriving at the London Stadium.

But could there be more business done in the final hours as David Moyes looks to build a squad capable of pulling themselves away from the relegation places.

Not forgetting, there is also a game to concentrate on, with the Hammers facing a big home game against Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.

Every word from David Moyes after Liverpool defeat

Here is the latest news from the London Stadium.

Lennon's Ntcham message

Reports claimed that the Hammers were interested in Celtic midfielder Oliver Ntcham as they look to strengthen in order to stave off relegation at the end of the season.

However, the arrival of Tomas Soucek could make the move unlikely.

Ntcham was a scorer for Celtic in their midweek win over St Johnstone, and the manager delivered a clear message on the midfielder after the match.

West Ham's transfer priority

Following the loss against Liverpool on Wednesday night, Hammers' boss sent a hint as to an area he may look to add to during deadline day.

Summer signing Sebastian Haller has not scored a Premier League goal since netting in the 4-0 win over Bournemouth in Moyes' first game in charge of the club, but the West Ham head coach has hinted that he has no other options than to persist with the Frenchman.

With deadline day now here, could West Ham complete a deal for another striker?

Cresswell on how to avoid relegation

The defeat to Liverpool left West Ham in 17th place in the table and only out of the relegation zone on goal difference, meaning that dropping into the bottom three should results not improve is a stark reality.

However, full-back Aaron Cresswell is confident that the Hammers have enough to be able to pull themselves away from the relegation scrap, and they showed that against the Reds.

The defender also outlined what him and his teammates must do to avoid the drop, see what he said here.
