West Ham hold final meeting with Fiorentina to seal the signing of Nikola Milenkovic
West Ham are set to have one final meeting with Fiorentina to seal the signing of Nikola Milenkovic, according to a report from Alfredo Pedulla.
He claims that the deal is getting “closer and closer” and that this final meeting between the Hammers and the Serie A club will prove to be the decisive one.
There are also claims that Fiorentina could give the Hammers a small discount, and the player himself has picked West Ham.
Good news for the Irons.
It seems as if finally, the Irons are close to making a permanent signing with the deal for Milenkovic edging closer to completion.
It is unclear exactly how much they will pay for the Serbian, but if that report is to be believed, then they will be getting a small discount off the initial 17million Euros [£14.4million] asking price.
So this could turn out to be an absolute bargain for a defender who was marketed at £38million earlier this year [the Sun].
However, we know what the Hammers can be like, and we hope that they now move quickly to seal the signing of Milenkovic before anyone else comes in and tries to steal him away.
The 23-year-old has clearly been the Irons’ top centre-back target, and they appear to be getting him for a very low price.
This would be an incredible deal if the Hammers can now finish the signing and get him in the squad for that Newcastle match.
