After West Ham agreed personal terms on a transaction, a board insider made a gravely alarming Edson Alvarez assertion. Edson Alvarez, a defensive midfielder for Ajax, has been strongly linked to a move to West Ham during the summer transfer window. When Declan Rice was about to sign with Arsenal, rumors that the Hammers may lure the Mexican to the London Stadium abounded.
But as the supporters are all too aware, West Ham has failed to sign even one player as a result of that. Last night, Fabrizio Romano made the suggestion that this might occur to change. Exclusive information about West Ham and Ajax midfield destroyer Alvarez’s personal conditions was provided by the Italian transfer reporter. Before they see the 25-year-old pulling up the claret and blue shirt, West Ham supporters are too elderly to be excited.
West Ham is “hopeful,” according to Sean Whetstone, of signing the tough Gold Cup champion. There shouldn’t be any counting of the chickens just yet, especially with other teams in the running and West Ham’s poor transfer conversion rate this season.
After Jude Bellingham moved to Real Madrid, Dortmund had more than £115 million in the bank to attempt and find a replacement. And a BBC reporter observed something during their final victory that will offer West Ham supporters a preview of what to anticipate if a deal is through.
Last month, the defensive midfield pro helped Mexico win the Gold Cup.
West Ham Also Eyeing For Montpellier Striker
According to RMC Sport writer Fabrice Hawkins, Chelsea, Fulham, and German Bundesliga team have joined West Ham United in the fight to acquire Montpellier attacker Elye Wahi. The French writer said that Montpellier wants about £35 million to sell the 19-goal forward, despite Chelsea having already made an opening bid of about £26 million plus add-ons.
The Prolific teenage forward has been courted by Eintracht Frankfurt in recent days, although West Ham, Fulham, and Chelsea are still in the running. After selling Declan Rice for £105 million, the Hammers will undoubtedly undergo a significant rebuilding process this summer to make sure David Moyes can compete right away when the season begins in mid-August. The club’s primary priority right now is to replace the England international, but following talks with a few potential targets, the requirement to add a striker ought to rank high on the list.
Given the desperate need for strikers in the current market, West Ham United will need to act quickly to secure any potential target. Given his profile and amazing potential, Wahi certainly fits the bill, but it’s obvious the East Londoners face a tough fight for his signature. The Hammers must therefore bring all the resources they need to compete for the Frenchman’s signature.
