West Ham United have reportedly reached an agreement with the Juventus for the transfer of Swiss midfielder Denis Zakaria.
The former Chelsea man, who spent last season on loan at Stamford Bridge, looks set to return to London with the Hammers in a permanent deal following weeks of talks.
Juventus have been keen to offload Zakaria, who struggled to make much of an impression in England last term, but who also previously looked a hugely promising talent at Borussia Monchengladbach.
West Ham manager David Moyes surely needs a midfielder like this to help him replace Declan Rice following his transfer to Arsenal earlier in the summer.
Other big names like Edson Alvarez, Scott McTominay and James Ward-Prowse have also been linked with West Ham.
This will be another disaster. Injury prone, an abject failure at Chelsea why oh why are we doing this! I’d rather play young Potts and save the money
You mean Potts who has now gone to Wycombe on loan…? 🙄
Chelsea season ticket holder mate of mine said that he was superb when he played for them, but does like an injury! Loan with option to buy would be the route but Juve not having it.
