One of West Ham United's stars might depart in January.

Kurt Zouma, a defender for West Ham United, has recently been mentioned in transfer rumors.

According to a report from Football Insider, the Hammers would consider selling the player if a bid of about £25 to $30 million is made.

It is unclear if West Ham will be able to find a suitable home for the 28-year-old center back, who is a crucial member of David Moyes’ first squad.

With West Ham, Zouma is under contract through the 2025 summer season. If West Ham chooses to move the Frenchman, they will have to find a good replacement.

It is reasonable to believe that West Ham won’t want to allow the player move in January absent of a compelling offer. They won’t want to weaken their team in the middle of the campaign. The Hammers are competing in several leagues, and they hope to succeed in the UEFA Europa League. Last year, they were successful in winning the UEFA Europa Conference League.

There have been several players who have been mentioned in the past as potential Zouma replacements for West Ham. Most players might find the chance to play for the London club to be an enticing choice, so it will be interesting to see if the Hammers can successfully offload the 28-year-old and find a suitable replacement in the upcoming months.

In the meantime, Zouma has established himself in the Premier League and is unquestionably capable of playing at a high level.
