According to a report from the Sunday Mirror West Ham are eyeing up a £1.5 million bid for Serbian teenage midfielder Milos Pantovic.
Red Star Belgrade is close to selling 17-year-old attacking midfielder Milos Pantovic to Spring Lisbon for $2m last year but the deal failed to materialise and is currently on loan with FK Graficar Beograd.
The player is the type of young hungry player David Moys has often talked about openly in his attempt to replicate the RB Leipzberg model. Buying such an unknown player would be a gamble but you only need one or two successes to pay off to warrant the modest sums to snap up this kind of players.
It unlikely that a player would go directly into the first team and would most likely spend some time in development squad like Goncalo Cardoso when he joined West Ham last August for £2.7m from Boavista, he has yet to make his breakthrough to the first team but at 19 years old still has time on his hands.
