West Ham midfielder close to departureWest Ham midfielder Pablo Fornals is close to leaving the club.
Manuel Pellegrini has been eyeing the player for weeks and it is now being reported the long time Hammers star has agreed personal terms according to Team Talk.
No fee or formal announcement has been declared by the club but they ensured he was signed to another year’s deal in order to get something around £8 million to £10 million.
Now it seems he could be gone before the winter window closes on February 1st to be reunited with the manager who brought him to the London Stadium for around £25 million in 2019.
Real Betis aim to do the deal once they have sold Brazilian winger Luiz Henrique, who is understood to be on his way to Botafogo.
Betixs are aiming to get £17 million for Henriqueand will then have speace in their squad for Fornals which they will hope in over the line by deadline day.
The 27 year old, who has made over 200 appearances for the Hammers since joining the club from Villarreal.
Fornals has been a liability of late, showing lack of desire to tackle , combined with very poor distribution which amazingly doesn’t stop Moyes from playing him.
As far as I’m concerned .the quicker he departs will be a huge benefit to the team
