West Ham United are on the brink of securing a deal for a truly exceptional player, with Julen Lopetegui still active in the transfer market despite a successful summer window so far.
The Hammers boss is seeking further reinforcements at the London Stadium to address remaining gaps in the squad. While priority is given to offloading surplus players, it does not mean that West Ham will not be making any more signings.
In fact, it is believed that Lopetegui will make a couple more signings before the transfer window closes, with one player in particular being linked with a move to the London Stadium.
West Ham are reportedly in negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain for the £20 million-rated midfielder Carlos Soler. Described as the ‘complete’ player, Soler is seen as the ideal addition to the team’s midfield.
With his impressive passing statistics and calm demeanor on the ball, Soler fits perfectly into Lopetegui’s system of playing out from the back. If the deal goes through, it would mark the ninth signing of the summer for West Ham, and a significant boost to the squad.
The pursuit of Soler signifies West Ham’s determination to strengthen the team further, with support from David Sullivan’s financial backing. Bringing in Soler would be a smart move for the Hammers, adding depth and quality to their midfield options.
