West Ham have struggled to find their feet this season despite Manuel Pellegrini's vast spending spree which saw him splash over £100m in the January window.

The Hammers' defensive line continues to be frail despite the additions of Issa Diop, Ryan Fredericks and goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, with the left side of the defence now appearing to be the area where reinforcements are needed.

Reports have suggested that West Ham are interested in signing Everton veteran Leighton Baines, who earns £70,000-a-week according to Spotrac, when his contract comes to a close in a move that would be eerily similar to the capture of Pablo Zabaleta from Manchester City in 2017.

We asked fans whether they would like to see the Toffees favourite brought to East London and the results were extremely tight.

A narrow advantage of 51% of supporters stated they are not keen on a deal to sign the 33-year-old, while 49% said the opposite and want the experienced full-back to join their club.
