At the weekend, reports from the Spanish media claimed that Fulham and West Ham United are both interested in São Paulo midfielder Pablo Maia.
It was said the player could cost just €7m, and that made him an attractive option for the Whites and Hammers.
However, as journalist Jorge Nicola now features a video talking about that chase, he claims that Fulham and West Ham would actually need to pay a little more to get it done.
It’s claimed that the Brazilian club will only accept negotiating the midfielder’s sale for at least €15m next year.
The journalist also doesn’t confirm the interest from Fulham and West Ham, even though the player had been linked to the Craven Cottage side in the recent past.
It makes sense that Maia will only leave for €15m. The midfielder had a great year at São Paulo and will definitely be chased by several clubs, especially from English football, so São Paulo have no reason to let him go for so little.
