As things stand, no matter how hard the Catalan press try to push it, André Gomes will not be moving to West Ham.
Mundo Deportivo explained on Tuesday the Hammers’ offer was the ‘most serious’, while Sport’s Wednesday edition also revealed an approach, which could be ‘formalised’ into a loan with the view to buy.
Fast forward to Wednesday afternoon, and while new articles keep getting written, we’re no closer to an agreement.
Mundo are the guilty party, going with the headline ‘Gomes is negotiating his exit’, when, in fact, the only negotiating going on is between the two sides, and it’s more of a game of chicken than talks.
West Ham are reported as only wanting a loan, while Barcelona want to get rid of the Portugal international for good and make money from him leaving.
Arsenal are also thrown into the mix, but they’re not really relevant since they’ve yet to make an actual offer.
Only 24 hours left of this…
