West Ham United allegedly could secure a bargain deal to sign Inter Milan star Joaquin Correa in the summer transfer window.

That’s according to a report from Gazzetta dello Sport who claim that the Inter Milan ace could be available for a cut-price fee with the Italian giants keen to sell him this summer.

Hammers boss David Moyes wanted to bring the 17-capped Argentina international to the London Stadium from Lazio last summer.

West Ham missed out on Correa though as Inter Milan ended up signing him for around €25 million (£21 million) according to Sempre Inter.

It seems as though the Hammers could get a second bite at the cherry this summer though. And with Moyes keen to bolster his attacking department at the London Stadium, it would be no surprise to see the Scot go back in for the Inter Milan ace…

West Ham bargain deal for Joaquin Correa on the cards

Gazzetta dello Sport reckon that Inter now class the 27-year-old attacker as ‘expendable’.

And as a result, the Hammers could snap him up for just £19 million this summer.

We think that Moyes should be all over this one.

The South American has electric pace and exceptional balance according to well-renowned scouting website Total Football Analysis.

Correa can play anywhere along the front-line. He was in fine form for Lazio in the 2020/21 season with 11 goals and six assists to his name in 38 games (Transfermarkt).

And the Argentinian ace bagged six goals and one assist in 26 Serie A games for Inter last term (Transfermarkt).

We believe that West Ham should be all over a potential bargain deal for Correa this summer.

The fact that he can play anywhere along the front-line makes him perfect for us.

Lets hope that the Hammers manage to wrap this one up with the minimum of fuss.
