Charlie Cresswell will be on the move this summer. Whether West Ham United or the Premier League is his destination, though, only time will tell.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ligue 1 outfit Toulouse rejected a loan-to-buy bid from the Hammers during the dying embers of the summer transfer window in 2025. <\/p>\n

\n

Now, with West Ham United continuing to keep a close eye on the England Under-21 international, The Violets <\/em>accept that retaining Charlie Cresswell\u2019s services for a further 12 months is likely to be beyond them.<\/p>\n

How would YOU convince Charlie Cresswell to chose West Ham?<\/h3>\n

West Ham United target Charlie Cresswell will leave Toulouse <\/h2>\n

President Oliver Cloarec was speaking to RMC Sport after Toulouse were thrashed 4-1 by title-challengers RC Lens in the Coupe de France semi-finals this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re in complete agreement (that summer sales will happen),\u201d the president says, Cresswell set to depart alongside striker Frank Magri and winger Yan Gboho. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut this isn\u2019t unique to Toulouse FC; (letting key players go for a profit) is the model for French football. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe managed to keep them last summer and this winter. There will be sales this summer, and other players will replace them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since West Ham\u2019s failed approach in 2025, Cresswell has reportedly attracted attention from Manchester United, Man City and Liverpool, among others. <\/p>\n

Toulouse are expected to demand a fee in the region of \u00a330 million, having also turned down substantial offers from Bundesliga strugglers Wolfsburg in the winter.<\/p>\n

Every word Nuno has said on Everton \ud83d\udc47 \u2013 what\u2019s your early score prediction now?<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Of course, the Hammers\u2019 hopes rest heavily upon whether Premier League football returns to the London Stadium in 2026\/27. <\/p>\n

Until then, the future of Nuno\u2019s current centre-back pairing \u2013 who are looking to secure a sixth clean sheet in ten top-flight games when Everton arrive on Saturday \u2013 remains uncertain. <\/p>\n

Axel Disasi\u2019s contract is controlled by Chelsea. And\u00a0Konstantinos Mavropanos has caught the eye of Dortmund, according to reports in Germany. The prospect of Champions League football will likely to appeal to a now-29-year-old defender at the peak of his powers.<\/p>\n
