According to a report by Futboll Direkt West Ham have resisted a £5m bid for forgotten Hammer Sead Haksabanovic
Earlier this year a report in the Swedish media has suggested a large number of clubs have been scouting the Hammer wh is currently on loan to IFK Norrköping
The Swedish website fotbollskanalen said that scouts from Manchester United, Arsenal, Parma, Stuttgart,Milan, Ghent, Glasgow Rangers, Freiburg, Iceland’s national team (Erik Hamrén), Antwerp, Rapid Vienna, Benfica, Utrecht, Ajax, Groningen, Zwolle, Holstein Kiel and Fehervar were all in attendance to watch the youngster.
Hasanović joined IFK Norrkoping on an 18-month loan deal in January 2019 recording six goals and eight assists in 29 Allsvenskan appearances last season.
The 21-year-old was part of a deal with an agent that smoothed the way to land Marko Arnautovic to become a Hammer in 2017. The Montenegro player is reported to be one of the highest-paid Academy players rumoured to be earning £15,000 per week. Football agent Will Salthouse is said to have been involved in the double deal that bought both Arnautiovic and Hasanović to West Ham.
We have plenty of gifted young players. Pleased to see we’re holding onto them and bringing them through where possible. Encouraging for the future.
