With the David Moyes era over and Julen Lopetegui confirmed as his successor, West Ham are wasting no time in their summer rebuild. A central defensive overhaul is a priority, but reinforcements are needed across the pitch, including on the left wing.
One player West Ham are reportedly close to signing is 19-year-old Brazilian winger Wesley Gassova. His dazzling dribbling skills have attracted interest from across Europe, but the Hammers seem to be leading the race.
Understandably, Corinthians manager Antonio Oliveira is desperate to hold onto his star player. He openly confessed his worry about losing Gassova, acknowledging the player’s crucial role in the team’s success.
Gassova’s potential is undeniable, and West Ham’s interest highlights their ambition for the upcoming season. Whether they can secure his signature and ease Corinthians’ concerns remains to be seen. This transfer saga is one to watch as the summer window unfolds.
