West Ham Agree Deal For Right Back Is This Good News For Southampton
Thursday, 25th Jul 2024 20:12

According to media sources West Ham United have agreed a transfer fee for a right back, but it is not Kyle Walker Peters, if this deal is completed then could this be good news for Saints.

BBC Sport are reporting that West Ham United have agreed an initial €16m (£13.47m) for 26-year-old right back Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich, with a potential further €3.5m (£2.95m) in add-ons.

The Morroccan is now in talks over personal terms and the Hammers hope to secure the player who has been linked with a number of clubs this summer, including Manchester United.

If they sign Mazraoui then this could be good news for Saints fans, as it will probably mean that the Hammers end their interest in signing Kyle Walker Peters, so it is a step in the right direction in the player remianing at St Mary's next season.

West Ham are also said to be in talks with Aston Villa striker Jhon Duran who was signed from Chicago Fire in January 2023 and has not really threatened a regular place in the starting line up for Villa.

However a closer look at his stats paint a more favourable picture, 5 goals in 35 Premier League appearances for Villa does not look a good record, but when you consider that most of them have been off the bench, then 5 goals in 556 minutes on the pitch, is a good stat.

I am surprised that he has not been linked with Saints, around £18 million, around the price Villa paid, would secure his services.

good news will allow Sugawara to settle in but I think KWP will go, unless he signs a new contract soon. The only other thing of concern is the amount of wingers we are being connected with. ours biggest needs are CF and CM? Why do we keep buying promising young wingers when we have two of our own? Wingers that, under RM's system, don't really get to play as out & out wingers, due to the nature of possession based, risk adverse football. Sulemana is a great example of wasted talent and money, there is definitely a lot of ability but it's never been truly utilised.
Lets spend a bit bigger where the need is the greatest up front and midfield centrally, bring back Fraser and utilise the wingers we have.

According to SSN the deal has fallen through
"West Ham's move for Bayern Munich right-back Noussair Mazraoui has broken down.
An agreement had been reached between the clubs but it's thought financials and details around the contract couldn't be agreed upon."

West Ham are now pursuing other targets
