Carlos Soler permanent West Ham United transfer claim shared amid salary reveal

West Ham summer signing Carlos Soler is on £240k/week wages at PSG so is unlikely to permanently move to the London Stadium, according to Hammers News.

The news outlet quoted a spokesperson from the club on 3 September who stated that signing him on a permanent basis next summer is going to be difficult to get over the line.

The Spain international moved to the London Stadium in August on loan in order to be a first-team regular.

“Soler is on £240k a week at PSG,” the club spokesman exclusively told Hammers News.

“So it’s going to be hard to do a permanent deal.”

West Ham must first gauge if Carlos Soler is the right fit

If Soler significantly exceeds expectations for the Hammers, the club might reconsider their stance on a permanent deal despite his high wages at PSG.

His performance could justify the investment, especially if he becomes integral to the team’s success.

West Ham could approach negotiations by proposing a slight reduction in his weekly wage, acknowledging the financial constraints of moving from PSG’s salary structure to the Premier League’s.

To sweeten the deal, they could introduce performance-based incentives.

These could be tied to goals, assists, match appearances, or even team achievements like qualifying for European competitions.

Such a contract would not only motivate the 27-year-old to maintain or improve his performance but also align his financial rewards with the club’s success, potentially making a permanent transfer more palatable for both parties involved.
