West Ham stance clear on Mavropanos future
West Ham are in no immediate danger of losing Konstantinos Mavropanos, a top source has told Claret & Hugh this morning.
Dinos has been heavily linked with a summer move away from West Ham, with Sky Sports yesterday claiming the Greek defender is a target for several Bundesliga clubs.
From zero to hero at West Ham
Mavropanos has seen himself go from zero to hero this season and is currently keeping £35 million defender Jean-Claire Todibo out of the team.
The former Arsenal trainee was signed from Stuttgart for £17 million by former director of football Tim Steidten and scored two goals in West Ham’s 4-0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers, which lifted the club out of the Premier League relegation zone.
West Ham are not concerned about the Mavropanos contract situation
Contract situation strengthens West Ham position
Claret & Hugh sought clarification from a source at the very top of the club, who spoke to us exclusively this morning, insisting West Ham remain in a strong position with the player’s contract.
“He’s got two years and a one-year option.”
Bigger decisions to come this summer
Last night, C&H were informed that once the club are certain which league West Ham will be playing in next season, they will look at all players’ contractual situations – but not before.
