West Ham didn't know that they were bringing about a star in Tomas Soucek when they brought him to the team in January 2020 on loan from Slavia Prague for the remainder of the 2019-20 Premier League season. But in 13 performances, he showed them that he was worth keeping around.

West Ham, subsequently, bought the Czech Republic international for around £19 million ($26 million) before the beginning of the 2020-21 season. And he has not disappointed at all, having numerous man of the match performances and netting 9 goals in 29 Premier League appearances this season, very impressive considering he is a defensive midfielder. The 26-year-old has announced himself to the world and now he is attracting the attention of super clubs.

The London star is on the radar of Manchester United as they have been highly impressed with his superb performances this season. And although a move to Old Trafford may seem appealing for the star, West Ham coach Stuart Pearce has come out and said that Soucek is "not going anywhere." West Ham and David Moyes seem to be trying to keep a hold of their star to continue helping in the Hammer's pursuit of European football. But as long as Soucek keeps up these performances, there is no doubt that soon, more clubs will come looking for the star.
