Hammers in talks and deny Lanzini rumour
This comes contrary to reports in the morning press claiming the Turkis have shown an interest in the player.
However, a top Claretandhugh source has revealed that the club is currently in talks with the player’s representative about extending the midfielder’s deal at the club.
Lanzini is out of contract next summer and we were told by e mail: We’ve had no approach from Fenerbahce and we’re in discussions about extending his contract.”
There have been fears that Liverpool in particular and other PL clubs would start showing an interest in the Argentinian who played just 10 games after injury last season.
But the club is moving quickly to ensure they do all they can to nail him down to a new London Stadium deal.
A report in The Mirror claimed the Turkish Super League outfit were keen but the Hammers hold a two year option on the playmaker anyway Manul Pellegrini wants a deal done asap seeing him as key to his future plans.
