Huge David Moyes boost as manager says he must sell Dario Osorio after West Ham links
Universidad de Chile manager Mauricio Pellegrino spoke candidly about his need to sell the talented teenage forward this summer, as quoted by La Cuarta:
“The club told us that it is very difficult to sign a player if we do not sell to Darío Osorio, that is the reality of the institution,” he said. If money does not come in, it is difficult for us to sign a quality player and there is no problem in saying so.”
The young South American, who can play on either wing or in the number 10 position, has already bagged eight goals in 42 senior games for Universidad de Chile (Transfermarkt).
Football Talent Scout have described the young Chilean as a flamboyant winger and compared him to Argentinian legend Angel Di Maria.
He is still very rough around the edges and will need to bulk up if he is to succeed in the Premier League, but he’s more than capable of doing that if he puts in the hard work.
Dario Osorio is clearly a very talented young player, and it will be interesting to see whether West Ham go back in with another bid for him.
We certainly should be after the comments from Mauricio Pellegrino.
