Following a change in post-Brexit work permit requirements, West Ham is one of many teams interested in acquiring Egyptian winger Ibrahim Adel, according to 90min. Adel presently represents Pyramids in his native country, although Anderlecht of Belgium has shown interest in him recently after he won the Under-23 AFCON tournament’s player of the tournament award.
The 22-year-old, who has long been considered as one of the most promising young players in African football, confirmed his status as such when he was crowned Player of the Tournament in the latest Under-23 Africa Cup of Nations. This young guy is obviously very talented, and there is a reason why so many organizations are interested in him
Adel, who has four caps for Egypt’s senior side and now plays for Pyramids in his own country, was pursued by Anderlecht a few months ago, but several of Premier League teams have also been keeping an eye on his development. Adel was earlier endorsed by Mohamed Salah to Liverpool, but they chose not to pursue their interest. However, when a large number of clubs are identified as being interested in a transaction.
There will be a lot of pressure wherever the player goes, but it doesn’t seem probable that it will be the London Stadium given how highly Salah regards the player and how highly he has endorsed him. West Ham would be a fascinating destination given the present choices we have and the paucity of game time that would be offered, so it’s definitely one to keep an eye on since hammers fans never know if it will happen or not.
West Ham Is Expected To Get A Better Offer From Roma
Gianluca Scamacca is apparently the target of an enhanced bid from Roma to West Ham. The Italy international stated that Rome is his “home” in his most recent interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, when he reiterated his desire to work for José Mourinho.
While West Ham are seeking a permanent move for the ex-Sassuolo attacker, who joined the Hammers for €36 million last summer, the Serie A giants are only interested in a loan agreement. Director Tiago Pinto will shortly submit an upgraded offer for the Italian striker, according to Calciomercato.com, after the Giallorossi’s initial offer was turned down.
Roma reportedly plans to increase the cost of their option to purchase at the end of the current campaign, but West Ham is hoping to incorporate an obligation to purchase that will become effective if the Giallorossi make the Champions League. Roma’s top priority in attack is Scamacca to replace Tammy Abraham, who will miss several months of activity due to a catastrophic knee injury sustained in the final game of 2022–23 season.
