Enner Valencia
West Ham want €18m (£15m) for the 26-year-old striker Enner Valencia, according to reports from Italy.

Tuesday’s edition of Tuttosport says this price will make Lazio turn their attention to other targets, and it would also make it difficult for Swansea to make a move. But still, West Ham won’t change their mind, and are sticking to the price.

On Monday, Tuttosport said the Italian side were set to pay only €3m for the loan and other €10m for a permanent transfer, so this new price really comes as a surprise. Either there’s been a change, or Tuttosport can’t get their story straight.

Valencia signed for the Hammers from Pachuca in 2014 for £12.75m. Despite the player having scored only 10 goals in 61 appearances, the Hammers still want to make a profit when selling him. His contract expires in June 2019.
