Fabian Balbuena is not short of offers according to the West Ham centre-back’s agent Renato Bittar, as quoted via Versus.

The 29-year-old’s contract with the Hammers expires at the end of June and he will then be free to join another club.

Balbuena joined West Ham from Corinthians in the summer of 2018, for a fee believed to be worth £3.5 million (Evening Standard).

The 15-capped Paraguay international has been a decent servant for the Hammers. But the summer will probably be the right time for David Moyes to move him on.

Fabian Balbuena not short of offers

The General, as he is affectionately known, may well still have a lot to offer in one of Europe’s top leagues.

It has to be said that he doesn’t have the physical capabilities to perform in the Premier League anymore, however.

Balbuena’s agent Renato Bittar told Versus that his client is not short of options as his time at West Ham draws to a close:

“We have several things for Fabian, most likely we will continue in Europe. There are several options, we are in no hurry because the tournament just ended. The best leagues are asking about him, he will continue in European football.”

We wish Balbuena well in his future endeavours.

Now is definitely the right time for the player and the club to go their separate ways, however.

Balbuena just doesn’t have the pace or mobility to play in the Premier League these days.
