3. Alvaro Arbeloa
The former Liverpool and Real Madrid was snapped up by Slaven Bilic for free after he was released by the Los Blancos. However, age seems to have caught up with the Spaniard, relegating him to only 3 Premier League appearances, two of which have been from the bench, since his move in the summer.
The 33-year old came out in the press recently, claiming that he will see out his contract till the summer, but according to recent reports West Ham are looking to pay-off Arbeloa and release him from his contract as early as January.
West Ham are pretty slim in choices for right-back with Sam Byram the only recognised option, which has prompted Bilic to use Michail Antonio on the right-side of defence. But reinforcements are needed in this area if they are to avoid the drop and one player who could prove to be a good addition at right-back is Carl Jenkinson who could return for a third loan-spell.
The Arsenal defender spent the past two seasons on loan at West Ham and had given a good account of himself during that time. But having returned to his parent club, he has struggled to make into the first team squad with Hector Bellerin irreplaceable at right-back and Gabriel used as a makeshift option ahead of him. Jenkinson has only played once for the Gunners in the league and could be tempted with the opportunity for regular playing time.
