Irons centre back linked with Manchester interest

Italian newspaper, Tuttosport reports that both Manchester United and Manchester City have been scouting West Ham’s Angelo Ogbonna with a view to a possible summer bid to strengthen their defences. 

West Ham completed the signing of Juventus centre back Angelo Ogbonna last year for an £8.5million fee on a four-year deal. He made an impressive 34 appearances last season and has been Slaven’s first choice centre back to partner Winston Reid ahead of James Tomkins and James Collins.

Ogbonna recently has told the club’s official website that is he really happy with his first year at the club.

“I’m really happy with my first season in England,” he told whufc.com.

“I’m really happy because I scored against Liverpool and that was an amazing moment for us. We have to be proud about this season and maybe next season we can do better.”
