West Ham want to sign Bologna midfielder Mattias Svanberg
West Ham are reportedly keen on bringing Bologna midfielder Mattias Svanberg to the London Stadium this summer.
According to Sport Mediaset, the Hammers are not the only ones in the race for the 23-year-old, with Everton and AC Milan also interested.
The Sweden international could be on the move this summer, with his deal expiring at the end of next season.
Sign him?
The Alex Kral experiment at West Ham has well and truly failed.
The Czech Republic midfielder arrived on loan after Euro 2020 and there was an expectation that he would live up to his type.
There were suggestions of David Moyes even moving to a midfield three in order to accommodate Kral with Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek.
However, now that he seems to be on his way out and Mark Noble appears to be calling it a day, David Moyes will surely need reinforcements in midfield.
Svanberg, who has been labelled “Brilliant” by Nordic Footy, a dedicated Twitter account profiling Scandinavian talent, will be a great addition to the Hammers.
He’s been playing at the senior level for the last seven years, despite being only 23.
The resale value on him would be sky high and this is an investment the Hammers must consider making.
In other West Ham news, the Hammers have scouted a £20m-rated ‘Dangerous’ British striker and want to seal a permanent move this summer.
