Just a few days ago, we covered a story in Italy that Boulaye Dia was hoping that West Ham United would be coming in for him before the end of the transfer window.
There is a deal there to be done, since Salernitana want to get rid of him, and the Hammers are looking for a striker.
However, West Ham have yet to come forward for the Senegal international, as reported by Calcio Salernitana.
The website explain that the only offer to have reached the Serie A side to date has come from Spartak Moscow, but the €15m on offer, bonuses included, ‘does not warm up’ either the club or the player.
Dia, down his end, is ‘eager for a call’ from either a big Italian team or a Premier League club, with West Ham being mentioned as the ones who do not ‘sink the blow’ just yet.
Fiorentina have since joined in, wanting to offer M’Bala Nzola as a bargaining chip, which Salernitana would be open to, all depending on whether the Angola international wants to move.
Therefore, Dia is still waiting for West Ham at this point, who need to make a decision on their next striker fairly soon.
