The Hammers have already made three signings this summer and are set to back Manuel Pellegrini further

West Ham are making a big splash in the transfer market this summer.

The Hammers appointed Manuel Pellegrini, a Premier League title winner with Manchester City, as their new manager last month.

They have promised Pellegrini he will be able to overhaul a squad which struggled last season, and co-owners David Gold and David Sullivan have stayed true to their word.

Highly-rated full-back Ryan Fredericks has arrived from Fulham on a free transfer, goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski has signed from Swansea City in a £7million deal, while central defender Issa Diop has joined from Toulouse for a club record fee of around £22million.

Now Pellegrini is looking to boost his midfield options and is showing an interest in Jean Michael Seri and Felipe Anderson.

Seri, the 26-year-old Nice midfielder, is rated as one of the top central midfielders in France and has attracted attention from Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea.

The Ivory Coast international has a £35m release clause in his contract and is understood to be eager to move to the Premier League.

West Ham are also in talks over a potential deal for Anderson, the Lazio winger.

The 25-year-old Brazilian is also valued at around £35million and has been tracked by numerous elite European clubs.

Jack Wilshere is another potential arrival at West Ham this summer after leaving Arsenal, with Pellegrini making big plans.
