Piotr Zielinski would accept West Ham United move if agreement reached
Piotr Zielinski would accept West Ham United move if a fee is agreed with Napoli according to Italian football outlet Fantacalcio.
Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth revealed (via Twitter, 28 July) that talks continue over a move for the 28-year-old midfielder, with the midfielder aware that this could be his last Premier League chance.
The Italian website has since suggested on Thursday 28 July that a move is edging closer with Zielinski ready to accept West Ham as a destination on a salary of £5million.
Moyes wants him
It is quite clear now that Moyes is very keen to bring the 28-year-old Polish international to the London Stadium this summer, with West Ham offering the Napoli man a sizeable wage package.
Whether the midfielder is a priority position for Moyes to fork out a large fee for is still very much up for debate at this stage.
West Ham do have plenty of options in attacking midfield with Jarrod Bowen, Said Benrahma, Pablo Fornals and Manuel Lanzini all options for Moyes to utilise.
Surely the West Ham boss will need to be targeting another more defensive help in order to ensure his squad is ready to go for the upcoming season.
Nayef Aguerd’s injury could somewhat force Moyes’ hand in terms of his transfer activity, with another addition at the back certainly on the agenda.
It feels a little foolish to fork out a large transfer fee for Zielinski when Moyes still has other spots to fill.
He clearly is a talented footballer and could well be a success for the Hammers, but a lower transfer fee may need to be negotiated by the club hierarchy.
