West Ham United have had a busy summer, splashing the cash on high-acclaimed players such as Andrei Yarmoloneko and Felipe Anderson. They have also brought in Jack Wilshire from Arsenal. There has been a change in management as well, with David Mayes being replaced by the much more high-profile Manuel Pellegrino, a former Premier League winner with Manchester City.
The move to the London Stadium has certainly boosted revenues for the West Ham, as Chairmen David Gold and David Sullivan look to guide them up towards the European places in the table. They open their season away from their home against one of the favorites for the title, Liverpool. This match could give us a few indications on how well the new signings and manager will settle in in East London.
We now take a look at how fans can buy West Ham United football tickets ahead of the 2018/19 campaign.
