West Ham United can now sign Barcelona left-back Junior Firpo for just €15 million (£13 million) according to a report from Calcio Mercato.
In other news…Report: West Ham want to sign £10m PL ace from former Hammers boss but there’s a problem
Hammers boss David Moyes will surely be looking to sign a new left-back this summer.
A left-sided defender who could also operate as a wing-back would be a bonus.
So Barca ace Junior Firpo fits the bill perfectly.
West Ham have been linked with the 24-year-old Barcelona star since January (ESPN).
The former Real Betis man would be the perfect summer signing for the Hammers.
West Ham could snap Junior Firpo up for bargain fee
Calcio Mercato reckon that the Barcelona left-back is now available for just £13 million.
That should be music to the Hammers’ ears. David Moyes just needs to get this one done for that price.
He has been described as an outstanding player who excels in 1v1’s, both from an attacking and a defensive perspective (Total Football Analysis). He has also been compared to legendary left-backs Roberto Carlos and Marcelo (La Liga Analysis).
Firpo is a solid defender and is a real threat going forward.
Signing the Barcelona ace would kill two birds with one stone for West Ham. He is apt at playing both the left-back and left wing-back roles.
For £13 million, we can’t go wrong. Get him in ASAP Moyesie!
