ExWHUemployee: West Ham United not interested in free transfer for Diego Costa
West Ham United are not interested in signing free agent forward Diego Costa, according to ExWHUemployee.
It is reported that David Moyes views the former Chelsea man as a disruptive influence and one that could upset the team spirit.
Costa’s name has popped up after the Irons failed to make a new signing in the January transfer window just passed.
Writing on the West Ham Way Patreon page (02 February, 4:47 pm), Ex shared the major update on a potential free deal.
“Despite being in need of a forward, David Moyes is not interested in taking former Chelsea forward Diego Costa on a free transfer,” he said.
“The player is seen as a disruptive influence and Moyes does not want to run the risk of upsetting the spirit he has in the team.”
Not happening.
No matter how desperate we are, we can’t slump to new lows and just bring in anyone to try and fix our problems.
Moyes has created success at the London Stadium by bringing together a group of players that all believe in the process and fight with each other for huge results.
Costa has proved that he is not that type of player, with his attitude just not good enough to play in this kind of squad.
Michail Antonio is keeping his fitness high at this minute, but his performances are dropping, that is where Jarrod Bowen comes in if needed.
The winger is capable of moving forward if needed, and we would rather that than waste big money on Costa between now and the end of the season.
