As the article mentions, sides like West Ham could be leapfrogged by more historically successful clubs because the charter has been opposed.

West Ham United are being tipped to finally win the race for Fiorentina defender Nikola Milenkovic this summer.

Pete O’Rourke, a journalist specialising in football transfer news, believes this potential £40million deal was already close to going through in the past, and now seems to be on the cards again.

The Hammers could do with bringing in a top defender this summer, and Milenkovic seems idea, having also been linked with big clubs like Manchester United in the past.

“The deal was close to being done, before I think personal terms, maybe with the agent, saw the move fall through,” O’Rourke told Give Me Sport.

“So maybe those issues have been resolved. There’s a real possibility this deal could happen.”

WHUFC will also surely be in the market for a new striker this summer, with growing speculation surrounding big names like Benfica’s Darwin Nunez.
