The Spanish newspaper describe it as a ‘golden opportunity’ for the Hammers.
David Moyes will be desperate to bolster his ranks at the London Stadium this summer.
The Scot will be looking to add a centre-forward and central midfielder to his squad. That will be the bare minimum.
It could be argued that we actually need a left wing-back, a centre-back and not one but TWO strikers as well.
One area West Ham are fairly well stocked is attacking midfield. Moyes brought Jesse Lingard to the London Stadium in January and he has been a huge hit.
West Ham offered Vitolo
It seems as though the Hammers could bolster their attacking midfield ranks even further still.
Fichajes claims that West Ham have been offered the chance to sign the 31-year-old Atletico Madrid winger.
Firstly, we need to get the Lingard deal done and dusted in the summer. If Moyes then manages to offload Felipe Anderson, Manuel Lanzini and Andriy Yarmolenko, Atleti ace Vitolo could then be a wise addition.
Especially for the quoted price of just £8.4 million (Fichajes).
West Ham certainly have more pressing squad deficiencies to address. If Moyes sorts them out, however, bringing Vitolo to the London Stadium wouldn’t be the worst signing in the world.
