This news has brought on frustration for many Hammers fans.
It seems as though Dunk would be the preferred choice for many, with one claiming the Englishman is a “better leader”.
This can’t really be argued against when looking at their prominence within Brighton this term, as Dunk has made 16 appearances, while Duffy has managed ten, playing just seven minutes across the last four games.
Whether Dunk was in the conversation or not, Duffy would not be a popular choice with some, as one fan stated “he’s slow and can only make Brighton’s bench”.
This is seen as another sign as to why Hammers fans can be annoyed with David Gold, David Sullivan and Karren Brady.
There has been a fractious relationship between the fans and board, especially since the move from Upton Park to London Stadium, which has seen protests in the past.
Did he really play for us?! No West Ham fan has managed to name all of these obscure Irons signings….
Supporters want to see them continuously go out and show ambition in the transfer market, an attitude that a move for Duffy isn’t seen to embody.
