Valencia gets £30m price tag as ‘Samp’ close in

|

Britain West Ham ValenciaSampdoria have reportedly been told they will have to offer £30million to get Enner Valencia out of West Ham. Ham.

The Hammers may be seeing an auction on the horizon although club insiders consistently deny any interest from Chelsea and according to a Mirror report the Hammers have a £30 million price tag on the striker.

Reporter Darren Lewis says however  the Irons have no intention of selling  him after buying him from £12.5m from Mexican side Pachuca last summer and that only a massive offer would change their minds.

But he adds that none of that “has dimmed the interest from Sampdoria ” who are also set to conclude a £6m deal to Spanish midfielder Pedro Obiang to us.

The signing of Obiang, 23, would represent a coup for the Hammers, who have allowed last season’s loanee Alex Song to return to parent club Barcelona because of concerns over his fitness.

    Remy plus Oscar would be a good deal,
    Sakho and Remy up top with Oscar just behind
    Carroll,Lee and Downing as backup,
    We can let Jarvis go then and bring in another winger to cover with Alfitano
    Sounds like a good start
