Guido Rodriguez has no intention of moving to the Saudi Pro League, as Claret & Hugh reported last week.

In recent days, speculation suggested the Argentine midfielder could be tempted by a mega-money deal in the Middle East. However, as we revealed, the move was vetoed by his agent in favour of exploring other options.

According to ExWHUEmployee, Rodriguez would prefer a return to Mexico, but Claret & Hugh understands this push is being driven by his representatives. Ideally, the 31-year-old wanted to join a La Liga club, but West Ham were unwilling to sanction a loan unless his significant wages were fully covered.

Rodriguez has options to leave West Ham

Speaking exclusively to C&H, an intermediary tasked with finding Rodriguez a club explained:
“There was a deal to go to Saudi for €8m per year net, which is more than he’s getting now. But his agent was convinced that a Mexican club could match the deal, which is crazy. They’ve been in talks with Mexican clubs for five weeks and the money still hasn’t been found.”

While there remains a chance Rodriguez could leave the club, the clock is ticking fast, with both the Mexican and Saudi transfer windows set to close shortly.

Hammers Chat my first game was West Ham 10-0 Bury . . . seriously!
We than went and bought Bury's central defender 😬⚒️ Irons

Started Hammers Chat alongside my partner in crime Geo back in 2014 and brough in to Claret & Hugh by my old mate Hughie to produce videos a couple of years later.

Give West Ham opinions on Sky Sports News and even did a bit of moonlighting on BBC Football Focus.

Sometimes feature on BBC Radio 5 Live and once ate a biscuit in Tony Gales shed.

Connoisseur of salted caramel doughnuts and I love a Sloppy Giuseppe pizza although I'm slightly suspicious where the name came from.

When I'm not moaning about West Ham I can be found walking a dog that looks like a sheep and tinkering with pinball machines.

    Slow , dour and unimaginative are the words to describe Rodrigues and Potter , which is likely why brainless Potter wants to keep him , he’s a reflection of himself .

      Does Potter want to keep Rodriguez?
      I haven’t seen that written anywhere, if you have a link, I’d appreciate it.
