West Ham United ace Jarrod Bowen piques interest of AC Milan, £25.5m fee mooted
AC Milan are already preparing their summer transfer window and have identified West Ham United winger Jarrod Bowen as a potential target.
According to Milan Press, the 25-year-old has been brought to the attention of Rossoneri as they look to bolster their side with the right-hand side of midfield a particular area for concern.
That is where Bowen has excelled for the Irons this season with 16 goals and nine assists to his name in all competitions to have helped David Moyes’ side to a Europa League semi-final and a top-six challenge in the Premier League.
The Serie A league leaders though appear to be starting their bidding for the Englishman at £25.5million which is a pitifully low offer considering he was valued at £70million back in September [Claret and Hugh] before his exceptional season really kicked off.
Nonsense
If AC Milan go on to win Serie A this season then they could potentially tempt him away from the London Stadium in the summer, especially if the Hammers themselves fail to qualify for the Champions League.
But if they are serious about their £25.5million valuation then they should save us all the time and not bother starting negotiations and stay in their lane.
We get that there isn’t the same kind of many in the Italian league as there is in the Premier League but even then their potential first offer is an embarrassment.
Where they have plucked this number from is baffling, especially with the previous valuation being so much higher than it.
That was before he went on his red-hot run of form too so if anything, the Rossoneri need to offer more than the £70million suggested to have even the slightest chance of the club entering talks.
In other West Ham news, Moyes is hesitant about signing this teenage sensation from the Czech Republic and it could cost the Irons a chance at signing him.
