According to the latest news from Sky Sports Germany, English Premier League powerhouse West Ham United FC is closely watching the dynamics of German international Mats Hummels, showing a strong interest in bringing in the experienced center back in this summer's transfer market. With the team's need to strengthen the center back position becoming more and more obvious, Hummels has become one of the important targets on West Ham United's attraction list.
West Ham United's reinforcement team believes that the addition of Hummels will significantly improve the team's defensive strength, and his rich game experience and excellent leadership ability will undoubtedly be a valuable asset to the team. Although the transfer window has not yet closed, West Ham United have shown enough determination to throw an olive branch to Hummels at the last minute, with a view to successfully bringing in the German center back.
However, it is worth noting that not all clubs interested in Hummels will get their wish. Serie A side Bologna reportedly made a previous offer for Hummels, but have now officially withdrawn it, leaving West Ham United in a relatively favorable position in the race.
But more people are concerned about the future career planning of Hummels himself. According to sources, Hummels is currently facing an important decision in his career: whether to continue to fight in the green field, or choose to hang up his boots and retire. Sources say that Hummels does have the idea of retirement in his heart, but the decision has not yet been finalized. For the veteran who has made great achievements for Borussia Dortmund and the German national team, how to balance his family, physical condition and personal wishes will be a key factor in his final decision.
