West Ham manager David Moyes hopes to be able to complete deals for both James Ward-Prowse and Harry Maguire – but stressed Manchester City’s bid for midfielder Lucas Paqueta was “not anywhere near” the club’s valuation. Southampton midfielder Ward-Prowse is having a medical ahead of his transfer to east London, while Maguire remains in discussions with United about the terms of his exit from Old Trafford. West Ham are understood to have knocked back an initial £60million approach for Paqueta from the Premier League champions. “We’ve had an offer from Manchester City, but at the moment it’s not anywhere near meeting our valuation,” said Moyes. Despite initial frustrations in the summer window, the Irons have added Mexico midfielder Edson Alvarez to the squad in a £35million deal from Ajax, with Ward-Prowse set to follow. “James Ward-Prowse is having a medical just now. We’ve agreed a fee but it’s not right I speak about him as he’s not yet our player,” Moyes told a press conference. United boss Erik ten Hag was giving little away when questioned on Maguire’s future, stressing the England defender would be available for Monday’s game against Wolves even though the club had accepted a bid from West Ham, understood to be around £30m. On the situation regarding Maguire’s expected arrival, Moyes said: “We’ve had a bid accepted from Manchester United, but while he’s not our player I’m not in a position to discuss him really.” After seeing former captain Declan Rice complete a new British transfer record move to Arsenal in a £105m deal, West Ham have been trying to reshape the squad for next season – when they will also compete in the Europa League – if not as quickly as Moyes would have liked. “It’s not about us having £100million to spend, but the fees being charged by clubs for players,” the West Ham boss said. “We sold Declan – I actually think Declan was quite cheap, to be honest – and there has nearly not been a player we have gone for under £40million. We have been very active, as you all know, trying to get players in.” West Ham have also seen Gianluca Scamacca and Nikola Vlasic depart as Moyes looks to push the group on from last season’s success in winning the Europa Conference League. “You need to look at the amount of players Chelsea bought – you need a number you can work with and a balance of players in each position, and all those things come into it when you try to sign them,” Moyes said. “I just walked through the corridor and looked at all the pictures of us winning a European trophy and it was incredible what we did. “We’re going into this season with a great deal of positivity. We have a great feeling and we want to keep it.” West Ham open the new Premier League season at Bournemouth on Saturday. Alvarez, though, will not be available as he continues fitness work since being away at the CONCACAF Gold Cup with Mexico. “They have always done well and they have a new approach this season under Andoni Iraola,” Moyes said of this weekend’s opponents. “It is always a hard game at Bournemouth, but we had a good win there last year and we hope we can get another one tomorrow.”

Fernando Alonso has revealed that not winning a Formula 1 title with Ferrari is one of his biggest regrets from his 20-year career. The Spaniard, racing in his 20th season in F1 this year with Aston Martin, burst onto the world stage after winning two titles in a row with Renault in 2005 and 2006, ending the championship win-streak of Michael Schumacher. After a famously fractured solo season with McLaren alongside then-rookie Lewis Hamilton in 2007, Alonso returned to Renault before moving to Ferrari in 2010. While at the Scuderia for five years, he finished runner-up in the championship three times and missed out in the final race of the 2010 and 2012 season to Sebastian Vettel – two moments he wishes he could have back. “Winning a championship with Ferrari – that would probably be the first thing I’d choose,” Alonso told the High Performance Podcast. “If I can go back in time to 2010, 2012, we were within a few laps to winning a championship and that could have changed a little bit the outcome of many things and the history behind a few things.” The 42-year-old added that he would enjoy the moment of his championship triumphs more, too, if he had his time again. “What I regret for sure and we touched [on this] before, was not enjoying more my time and my career,” he said. “You know that I’m at the end of it. There is a new life, you know in a few years’ time for me without driving and when I look back to my career, I will see a lot of good things and friendships and incredible experiences but, yeah, I should have enjoyed more. “I won the championship in Brazil, 2005 and 2006, and I hardly remember anything from those afternoons and nights, which is sad.” After a dire spell back with McLaren, Alonso took a two-year hiatus from F1 in 2019 before returning with Alpine in 2021. He shocked the paddock when he joined Aston Martin for 2023 but the move has paid off. With 10 races left, he is the best of the rest behind the Red Bull pairing of Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, lying third in the standings and is one point ahead of rival Lewis Hamilton.
