With West Ham struggling this season, many fans have called on manager Manuel Pellegrini to give younger players a chance but so far there's been no sign of that happening with Areola still playing regularly. 

The jury is still out on whether or not Alpheus will ever be considered one of the best goalkeepers in world football but he has already achieved success with PSG where they have won multiple Ligue 1 titles. 

Champions League appearances including being runners-up last year to Liverpool If rumors are true then PSG could sell him this summer as they prepare to build their squad around Kylian Mbappe and Neymar Jr which may mean less playing time for Alpheus next season.
