Friday saw claims coming from France that West Ham, along with Newcastle United, are ‘prepared to pay’ €30m for Moussa Marega this summer.
The 28 year old striker was born in France so that gives a good clue where these claims are coming from. West Ham have been repeatedly linked with the player and last summer he tried to force a move to the Hammers.
It led to him missing part of preseason and he was then reintegrated into the squad and had another good season.
Saturday’s edition of Record has a look at the claims from France, and it’s pretty clear that no club has actually made a serious move for the Porto player yet.
Record say the player’s ‘fickle personality’ often causes problems at this time of year, with him hoping for a big move.
The West Ham claims from France said the €30m figure is Marega’s clause, however, Record say it’s actually €35m.
