Maxwel Cornet just hasn’t worked out one little bit as a West Ham United player unfortunately.
West Ham boss David Moyes signed Maxwel Cornet from Burnley for around £17.5 million in the summer of 2022, but he has failed to make any kind of positive impact the London Stadium.
He was heavily linked with a move to Crystal Palace on deadline day earlier this month, but he decided to stay at the London Stadium in the end.
The £17.5 million that the Hammers paid for the Ivorian (Sky Sports) now seems like a complete waste of money.
Moyes clearly doesn’t fancy the 27-year-old, and whenever he is given a chance, he fails to impress, aside from the goal he scored away at Sheffield United last month.
He has missed out on match-day squads when he hasn’t been injured a few times this season already, but on Monday night his absence wasn’t really noticed by anyone…
