A player rich with Premier League experience, Sigurdsson is one of the very best footballers in the division outside the top clubs. The darling of Swansea City fans has been as productive as ever this season, but the club as a whole have failed to impress.
Barring Swansea’s inspiring win against mighty Liverpool last week, the Welsh club still needs to come up with quite a fight to stave off relegation by the end of the season which makes it easier for West Ham to lure the poster boy of Icelandic football away.
Sigurdsson may not have the dribbling skills of Payet, but his productivity is unquestionable. One of the best set-piece takers in the Premier League, the experienced Sigurdsson is a good link between the midfield and attack and has an eye for a pass.

Snehanjan Banerjee
Snehanjan is a journalist at Sportskeeda covering European football news. A hardcore Liverpool fan for over two decades, he has been covering the game since the past 8 years and always strives to give readers relevant, accurate and credible content.
Snehanjan developed an interest in football at a very young age, thanks to his father watching football on TV. His favorite player is club legend Steven Gerrard and his favorite manager is another legend in Jurgen Klopp. The ‘Miracle of Istanbul’ i.e., Liverpool beating AC Milan in the 2005 UEFA Champions League final left an indelible mark on him. He believes that Liverpool is a family unlike other top clubs, which sets them apart.
Snehanjan also follows Indian Super League and the I-League, although the latter is closer to his heart. If he could change a rule in football, it would be VAR not pointing out mistakes of on-field officials unless they are clear and obvious errors. Outside the football world, Snehanjan likes to explore the various genres of music and watch movies and shows on OTT. He’s also a car enthusiast and likes to follow the automobile world.
