Earlier today, we relayed news from Italy Tottenham Hotspur initiated contact over signing Nahitan Nández and West Ham United have moved into the picture for the Cagliari player.
Leeds United were previously named as a contender for the midfielder in the Italian media and his agent also opened the door to make a switch to the Premier League.
This was before Inter Milan stepped up their efforts to sign the 25-year-old, but the track cooled off because the Serie A winners’ proposal of loan with an option to buy was rejected by Cagliari.
Calciomercato.it state clubs in the Premier League ‘appreciate’ the Uruguay international, but add ‘there are denials on the Tottenham track’.
The Whites get a mention and it’s said ‘Leeds are ready to return’ for the South American, and having looked at Nández earlier in the window, the track ‘could suddenly become hot again’.
Marcelo Bielsa’s side are joined by the Hammers as David Moyes’ side are showing great interest in Nández. He has a €36m release clause, but Cagliari are ‘willing to drop’ the price to €25-26m.
What they are not ready to compromise on, however, is the formula for transfer as the Italian club want a guaranteed sale.
Calciomercato.it add Cagliari are looking at a sale or loan with obligation to buy, with either of these two avenues ensuring both a permanent exit and a lovely sum of money from Nández’s exit.
