Just three days ago we covered a claim from Portuguese newspaper A Bola that West Ham are interested in Miguel Layun.
The Mexican played well for his country in their first World Cup game and that’s given Porto hope of a good incoming fee.
That report came days after Spanish newspaper AS had claimed interest from Arsenal, Marseille and AC Milan. Sevilla have had a €6m buying option, having had the player on loan last season, and there’s every chance they’ll move again.
Saturday’s edition of A Bola names Marseille, but leans on the French press for that, and Milan, and does the same with the Italian media, and then presents Arsenal.
West Ham don’t even get a mention this time around, which has to be considered strange given the same newspaper went big with it just a few days ago.
Layun is a 29 year old right-back who can also play on the left or further forward. He’s been reasonable in spells at Porto, Watford and Sevilla, but hasn’t ever really made himself a key player at the top level.
A Bola say Sevilla have ‘abdicated’ their €6m clause, which makes it sound like the deadline to use it may have passed.
