Eintracht Frankfurt are now ready to sell Djibril Sow to West Ham for an absolute bargain deal in the summer.

According to German football journalist Christian Falk, West Ham can sign Djibril Sow from the Bundesliga club for just €15 million (£13.3 million).

Hammers boss David Moyes will most likely have to replace Declan Rice this summer, with the 24-year-old being heavily linked with an exit.

And Sow, 26, is someone who West Ham want to bring in, if Dec does indeed leave the London Stadium.

The 36-capped Switzerland international is a very good footballer but he should not be considered as a like-for-like replacement for Rice. Nevertheless, he’d still be a very good addition for the Hammers…

West Ham can sign Djibril Sow for bargain fee

Eintracht Frankfurt are ready to sell Sow to the Hammers for just £13.3 million. For that price, Moyes simply has to get the deal done.

There won’t be much better value for money to be had than that in the summer market this summer.

The Swiss ace is an excellent player and would be a great option for West Ham next season. We all know how good he is – we witnessed it first hand during the Europa League semi-final clashes last season.

He has bagged for goals in 28 Bundesliga matches this season. During those outings, the 26-year-old has averaged 1.4 tackles and one interceptions per game. Sow has made 49.1 passes on average per match and has recorded a completion rate of 85.4% (Who Scored).

The Eintracht Frankfurt ace is very comfortable in possession, is a great athlete and a tenacious tackler.

If David Moyes brings Djibril Sow to West Ham in addition to someone like Ibrahim Sangare or Teun Koopmeiners, then I think we’ll be on to a winner, and life after Declan Rice might not be that bad.

Let’s hope that the Hammers boss manages to strike a deal for the 26-year-old.
