Ismael Saibari could change clubs this winter, as he is reportedly of interest to several large European clubs, including West Ham.

West Ham United are prepared to act in the January transfer window to complete a deal for Ismael Saibari, who they have identified to help them offensively and in their efforts to avoid relegation. West Ham are the club most eager to sign Saibari and are ahead of other clubs hoping to acquire him. West Ham will likely have to pay more than the player's Estimated Transfer Value of €25.1m to complete a deal. The player is unwilling to force a move before the 2026 World Cup. PSV are in a strong negotiating position, as Saibari signed a new contract in May 2024.

Several media outlets report a growing interest from West Ham in Saibari. According to Abdelmajid Lamris, Saibari might wait until the 2026 World Cup before leaving PSV. PSV Eindhoven will not rush to sell the player and will probably prefer to wait until the Africa Cup of Nations to assess the situation. The English club will have difficulty convincing Saibari to leave now, especially with the 2026 World Cup approaching, as the player's primary wish is to maintain his form and consistency to represent Morocco in the competition. Abdelmajid Lamris believes Saibari will prefer to stay at PSV for some time to maintain his rhythm and to consider the best offers after the 2026 World Cup.

According to Graeme Bailey of TBR Football, West Ham United sees Ismael Saibari as a target for the winter transfer period. The report also states that multiple English scouts attended a recent match in Rotterdam to watch Saibari. Saibari's contract with PSV runs until mid-2029.
