Sofyan Amrabat’s brother has responded to West Ham transfer rumours after the defeat to the Hammers in the final.
West Ham have won their first major trophy for 43 years and first European title since 1965.
A breathtaking last gasp goal from Jarrod Bowen gave West Ham a 2-1 win over Fiorentina to see the Irons lift the Europa Conference League.
Said Benrahma had given West Ham the lead but the Hammers were pegged back just a few minutes later.
Bowen would have the final say, though, timing his run perfectly as he was found beautifully by Lucas Paqueta before providing a finish that will go down in West Ham history.
Sofyan Amrabat’s brother responds to West Ham transfer rumours after defeat in final
As West Ham fans know only too well, the match was likely Declan Rice’s last appearance for the club ahead of a mega money summer move.
West Ham had been heavily linked with a potential move for Fiorentina’s star player Sofyan Amrabat as a replacement for Rice.
His superb performances alongside West Ham star Nayef Aguerd at the World Cup put him on the radar of some of Europe’s elite clubs.
But after West Ham denied Amrabat and his teammates European glory, links resurfaced over a potential switch to the London Stadium.
Now Amrabat’s brother has responded to West Ham transfer rumours after the defeat in the final.
‘Sofyan has bigger and better options than West Ham’ says brother
Speaking on ESPN the game, as also reported by transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano, ex Watford player Nordin Amrabat acknowledged West Ham’s interest.
But he believes his brother has bigger and better options on the table.
“Sofyan to West Ham?,” Nordin said.
“No, he wants to go to the top and his desire is to play in Spain.
“At Barcelona, he is high on the list but you know Barça’s financial situation.
“There are more clubs interested in Sofyan.”
