Manuel Pellegrini may be in need of a centre-back this summer, with West Ham potentially losing up to two defenders ahead of the new season. Winston Reid has an uncertain future after struggling with injuries in the last 18 months while Angelo Ogbonna has been linked with a move to AS Roma.
Should both players be moved on, Pellegrini will need at least defender coming in the opposite direction which could open the door to Pontus Jansson. The 28-year-old was on the radar of West Ham last summer but opted to stay at Leeds as he felt he had unfinished business after they finished outside of the playoffs.
