West Ham United seem to have joined Brighton & Hove Albion in the hunt for Hertha Berlin youngster Ibrahim Maza.
It’s German newspaper Bild who feature a story claiming the Bundesliga side should soon have to deal with the big interest that some of their players have been drawing.
Hertha Berlin will have to make some sales to balance their finances this summer, and despite their wish to hold their big talents, some sales may be inevitable.
Maza is one of those players, with Bild claiming that the likes of West Ham, Brighton, Brentford and Leicester City have been interested in him, having recently watched him in Germany. Other Bundesliga clubs such as Werder Bremen and Wolfsburg are said to be keen as well.
The outlet claims the midfielder has a market value of €1.5m, although it seems like this big race can surely give Hertha Berlin a chance to make a bigger sale.
Back in March, the very same Bild had already reported Brighton’s interest in Maza, claiming the 17-year-old was in the Seagulls’ list. Now they’ll have to face a much bigger competition against West Ham and others.
