According to TuttoMercatoWeb, West Ham are competing with a number of European clubs for Spezia midfielder Emil Holm.
According to the Italian news agency, the Hammers are competing for the Swedish defender’s signing with Serie A clubs Napoli, Inter, Atalanta, and Juventus, as well as Premier League opponents Brighton.
Tutto stated that Spezia are prepared to losing the 23-year-old right-back, but with his contract set to expire in 2026, they are seeking a fee of around £12.8 million.
Bargain
When you consider how much a player generally lands in the Premier League for in the present market, the amount indicated for a player who appears to be extremely highly ranked in Italy doesn’t seem too exorbitant.
The fact that a number of teams, including some of Italy’s largest, have expressed interest demonstrates that there is potentially a great talent on offer here.
It’s also worth noting that Brighton rarely get it wrong when it comes to recruitment, so if they’re interested in him, it’s another hint that he’ll be able to fit right in at the requisite level.
Given the players they’ve lately been associated with, West Ham are clearly looking for another full-back, so it wouldn’t be surprising if we made an offer for him shortly.
However, if the team wants to sign him, they will have to act swiftly.
