We have a opinion that Manuel Lanzini began his last game for West Ham United today, which was a match against Brentford. The game was held at Griffin Park. In today’s match in west London, West Ham were defeated by Brentford by a score of 2-0, and David Moyes opted to start Manuel Lanzini for the first time in his professional career with the club.
Lanzini has only played in 144 minutes of Premier League action for the Hammers before to today’s encounter. Considering that he began the season on the bench for the squad, this is not even close to a significant amount of playing time for Lanzini.
According to The Mirror, the Argentine star, who is now 30 years old, initially joined West Ham on loan in the summer of 2015, and then made the trade permanent in the summer of 2016, for about 9 million pounds sterling.
His career was cut short after three years of exceptional performance when he suffered an injury to his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) while playing for Argentina at the international level. This injury caused him to miss the rest of the season. Since then, he has become a whole different player, and there are rumors that he may be returning to River Plate, the team that he used to play for when he was younger.
In All Probabilty This Was Lanzini’s Last Game In West Ham Jersey
Lanzini did not have a bad performance tonight, but he also did not have a terrific one, and considering that his contract is up in the summer and that Moyes definitely does not view him as a regular starter anymore, a move away from the London Stadium this summer seems like the best choice for everyone concerned in the situation.
The present contract that the South American midfielder has with the Hammers is set to expire the following month; however, the club has the option to extend the term for an additional two years at their disposal.
As we go closer to the summer transfer window, the fact that we no longer have to account for Lanzini’s pay of about £70,000 per week at the London Stadium (Spotrac) is a significant benefit. Over the past eight years, Manu has been an outstanding player for our team, despite the fact that he is not the same person he used to be.
The Hammers have recently garnered a poor reputation for keeping players on their roster long after they have reached their peak performance. Because the man from Argentina is still young (he’s just 30), we are confident that they won’t repeat the same error twice.
It would be a terrible loss for West Ham if Manuel Lanzini were to leave the club this summer. Despite this, after everything is said and done, it will turn out to be the finest choice for everyone.
