Boleyn Insider says zero chance of Ibrahimovic

The club’s in-house ITK has reacted to a few pre-transfer window transfer rumours with Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the top of his lost as a non starter!

The insider says “Fresh reports in the last 24 hours have suggested the Hammers are close to making a move for Paris Saint-Germain forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

My understanding is that the Club have explored the option of signing the former Milan and Barcelona striker, but there is zero chance of a deal happening.

I have been told that the Board admire him as a player, but his contract would be out of all proportion to the wages earned by anybody at the Club or any player in the Premier League.

Turning to other matters he says: There has been a lot of speculation linking the Hammers with moves for Marseille striker Michy Batshuayi and Lyon forward Alexandre Lacazette.

My sources have told me that they are just two of a dozen potential strikers that the Board are looking at and the list will be reduced to two or three names by the end of the season.

Once the transfer window re-opens they will be ready to make their move for the striker they want.”
