West Ham United are intensifying their efforts to sign Brazilian defender Fabricio Bruno from Flamengo according to Rubro News. The transfer deal for the non-nonsense central defender was believed to be dead but if there is one thing we’ve learnt in this window, it’s that seemingly finished negotiations can be revived.
The Hammers have already had a bid of €13.5 million accepted by the Brazilian club, but the player himself has rejected the offer. Undeterred, West Ham are preparing to increase their bid, including a significant salary package, in hopes of securing Bruno’s signature.
The 28-year-old has impressed in Brazil and is seen as a valuable addition to strengthen West Ham’s defensive line. However, the club faces competition from Rennes, who have also shown interest in the defender.
As a versatile defender capable of playing on the right or left side of the central defence, Bruno could provide much-needed depth and quality to the backline.
Although the Irons will need to act swiftly to fend off interest from the French club and secure Bruno’s services before the transfer window closes.
I thought that he had a new baby and young family and didn’t want any upheaval ?
I guess people can change their minds but I thought that was a major part of the issue.
“Time for a Brazilian I Irons Intensify Intent”
You down the Wetherspoons again, Simon? Reads like you’re about 8 pints in.
Irons need to act swiftly!!!!
That’s killed the deal before its started.
Nah, it’ll be done by Monday. Sully’s missus will give him a BJ and he’ll be right! 😂
do it yourself mate, for the club 😒
He won’t be going to a French club, if he wasn’t happy with our financial package not sure how a French club will pay one, we should have paid what he wanted first time up and we would have signed him.
Another transfer target that if we had paid an upgrade on his present earnings , he would be an Iron by now…maybe.
Why oh why do we try to do everything on the cheap….except for ticket concessions of course. Whilst I understand you don’t want to be ripped off just sometimes you have to pay the going rate for success.
