It seems that West Ham could have a surprisingly easy job in case they try to sign Yacine Brahimi from Porto this summer.
It was the English press who reported that Manuel Pellegrini wants the winger in London next season, and the response from the Portuguese media today is quite positive.
They claim that this sale could help Porto get to their €100m goal in transfers this summer, despite all the players they are losing after the Portuguese league title.
Even Brahimi’s tag price sounds reasonable now. A Bola claims that Porto are demanding €30m for his transfer, and a cheque with those numbers is enough to take him.
A Bola claims that West Ham have admired Brahimi for a long time, and the ‘real news’ would be this interest from the new club manager.
The Algerian finished the season for Porto with 12 goals and 10 assists. After being linked to Premier League clubs for so long, maybe the chance for a move is finally getting closer.
