Here's something to knock Trump off the front pages — West Ham have actually signed a player. Right back Vladimir Coufal has signed from Slavia Prague for £5.4 million. That seems a decent price for a player who is a Czech international and has played in the Champions League. Coufal is a former teammate of Tomas Soucek and if he's anything like Tomas the 28-year-old could be a good addition — and will perhaps prove the long-term replacement for Ryan Fredericks.
Should the club sign a centre back as well then the transfer window might not prove the disaster it threatened to be. Though let's remember that Aston Villa, a club of comparable size, have had a great window signing Ollie Watkins, Matty Cash, Emiliano Martinez, Bertrand Traore and Ross Barkley on loan. There's still much work to be done.
