West Ham United do not have a recall clause in striker Jordan Hugill’s loan deal, ClaretandHugh reports.
What’s the word?
The striker was loaned to QPR in the summer transfer window and he has already scored five goals in six outings.
He netted on his debut against Stoke City and was also on the scoresheet against Swansea City and Wigan Athletic, before netting a brace in the 2-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday.
His form has placed the Hammers’ decision to loan him out under the microscope, particularly after Javier Hernandez was sold to Sevilla on Monday.
But ClaretandHugh now reports that there is no option for the Hammers to bring him back in January.
An oversight
This is a mistake on West Ham’s part.
Now, admittedly, this looked like a good deal at the time; his goalscoring record was average even during his time at Preston – 30 goals in 114 games – while he made just three appearances for the Hammers.

Even still, a recall clause should have been included, just to ensure that the Hammers were covered should Hugill start the season like a house on fire.
That is exactly what he’s done and, now, the Irons look foolish.
They are unlikely to make the same mistake again.
