Fabrizio Romano shares if West Ham will abandon Kurt Zouma pursuit
West Ham United and their pursuit of Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma went into overdrive on Wednesday evening.
Julien Maynard initially reported that the deal had collapsed and was fully off due to complications in talks.
That changed very quickly though, with Jason Burt then claiming that the deal was back on through all these complications.
Fabrizio Romano has now shared his update on his personal Twitter account and shared if the Irons will abandon their pursuit for new targets.
“The main issue between Kurt Zouma and West Ham is about agents,” he wrote.
“Chelsea want Zouma to go as they’re ready to bid for Jules Koundé in order to complete the deal.
“West Ham will try to resolve the problems with Zouma – deal in danger but no Caleta Car talks as of now.”
Caleta Car?
Jim White has shared this week that the Irons have a plan B just in case the Zouma deal goes wrong, and that could come into play very soon.
With this move potentially on the very edge of collapsing every single minute until it is eventually completed, anything could happen between now and next week.
David Moyes will just want this one getting over the line, with the Frenchman his priority target in this window.
With each passing day, the stress appears to be growing and hopefully this one can be completed with plenty of time to spare with no plan B needed.
