Report: Hammers linked to Benfica playmaker

|

West Ham are being linked into a rumour which at one point only concerned Newcastle and Andreas Samiris.

The Greek player’s contract expires this summer with The Toon being reported as the team leading the chase to  snatch him up on a free transfer.

Now the newspaper Record  claims that both ourselves and Wolves are involved in trying to to get the player this summer.

Dinamo Kiev are also claimed to be ready to show their hand although it is believed the player hasn’t made his mind up on anything as is thought to be content at Benfica.

Dinamo would try to challenge on personal terms but the Premier League is where the money is and any of the three clubs claimed to be in the running could inevitably outbid them were the chips to be down.

It’s another of those tales that usually raises its head at this time of the year and we have been unable to get any confirmation of interest from inside the club.
