West Ham have 'bid rejected' for Leeds winger Raphinha as David Moyes continues hunt for a forward... while Hammers are 'still trying to sign a centre-back' before transfer deadline

West Ham have reportedly had a bid rejected for Leeds winger Raphinha as Monday’s transfer deadline looms.

David Moyes is keen to add attacking reinforcements to his squad this month as the club look to get back on track in their quest for a top four finish.

The Hammers have suffered back-to-back defeats to Leeds and Manchester United, while Michail Antonio – the only recognised centre forward at the London Stadium – has scored just twice in his last 14 appearances.
