West Ham star worth £35.5m unlikely to ever play for Hammers again

Posted by

West Ham United striker Gianluca Scamacca is set to end his London nightmare and return to Serie A.

That’s according to a recent report from Football Insider, who claims the former Sassuolo forward, who signed for David Moyes’ side for £35.5 million just 12 months ago (Sky Sports), is on the verge of rejoining the Italian league.

Understood to be in talks with Roma to complete a loan-to-buy transfer to the Stadio Olimpico, Scamacca, 24, is expected to be Jose Mourinho’s fourth summer signing.

Failing to impress since he joined the Hammers, Scamacca, who still has up to five years left on his contract, has managed just eight goals in 27 appearances in all competitions.

Seemingly unsettled in England’s capital, it comes as little surprise to see reports that the 24-year-old is eager to return to the more familiar Serie A.

Also, considering West Ham United’s number 11 recently changed agencies and decided to link up with agent David Lee of CAA Stellar, a summer transfer was always likely.

  1. Do you think this might be the fault of someone who only wants to defend. Two great forwards dumped. What is happening to our great club have we even got enough players for 5 a side. Moyes needs to go now before we get relegated.

  2. Scamacca must act professionally and stay with Westham . A player can’t be allowed to leave with 5 years left on his contract , because his first season was hard . Is a contract worth anything ? The answer is no if Westham allow Scamacca to go with another giant loss and by the way , this becomes a huge FFP problem as well .

  3. Can we have some sanity, 3 players we know of, wanting to break their contracts. All 3 have been fairly treated, 1 with really good wages for 8 years. Cress is valued by our management at £5 million, he is throwing his toys out of his pram, because we are sticking to that valuation. Grow up son, you have a contract, shut your mouth, and await what the club will allow you to do. Same with Vlasic, and Scamacca, contracts both of you don’t sign them if you are not going to abide by them. You were purchased by the sweat an toil of our supporters.. pay them back
