West Ham are said to have made a loan-to-buy offer to sign Cagliari striker Giovanni Simeone according to a report from CalcioMercato
The 25-year-old is the son of Atletico Madrid manager Diego and a striker who managed only six goals in 33 Serie A appearances
Initially joining Cagliari on loan from Fiorentina in the summer of 2019, he scored 12 Serie A goals during 2019-20.
The Hammers are claimed to have made a loan-to-buy offer worth £900,000 up front but Cagliari are not interested in such a deal the report concludes.
Simeone was born in Madrid while his father was playing for Atlético Madrid. His family moved to Italy in 1997, but later returned to Spain in 2003 following his father’s career club changes.
Two years later he moved to Argentina, and joined River Plate’s youth setup in 2008 when his father was appointed coach of the first team. He holds both Argentine and Spanish nationality but represents Argentina internationally.
If true glad it didnt happen. Not the sort of quality feel we should be after. Would be disappointed if we actually made such an offer.
Not too bothered by this , probably a good thing
Who?
Actually, why don’t we stop messing about & go for Adam Hložek. He is perfect , he’s young but if your good enough your old enough . Surely he’s the one . COYI ⚒
