West Ham must snap up these 3 bargain buys in the January sales

Daniele de Rossi

De Rossi has been putting in impressive performances in the heart of the Roma midfield for well over a decade now. The Italian is a real leader of men, someone who you want alongside you in testing circumstances. West Ham are crying out for a player of this ilk right now.

As we touched on with Schneiderlin, De Rossi will provide the protection West Ham so desperately need for a defence that has shipped 31 goals in 15 Premier League matches so far this term. Better still, the Italian will likely be available for a cheap fee this window as his contract is due to expire this coming summer.
