West Ham United is on the verge of securing a deal to bring in Carlos Soler from Paris Saint-Germain, as reported by L’Equipe. The Hammers have made a late move for the 27-year-old midfielder, offering a transfer fee of £21.2million, including bonuses.
Julen Lopetegui’s side is said to be in talks with PSG to agree on a loan-to-buy arrangement before the transfer window closes in eight days. Despite already making several signings, West Ham is still looking to bolster their squad.
With Soler potentially becoming their 10th addition this summer, the club is working on offloading some players before the deadline. The midfield has been a concern for Lopetegui, especially after a disappointing loss in their opening match of the season.
Soler’s versatility as a central midfielder and right-back, along with his goal-scoring ability, could make him a valuable addition to the team. He has proven himself in Spain and in PSG, as well as earning international caps with the Spanish national team.
Should the deal go through, Soler could provide the experience and quality needed to strengthen West Ham’s midfield and contribute to their goalscoring efforts in the upcoming season.
