Denis Zakaria is now closing in on West Ham move

West Ham United reportedly could seal the signing of Denis Zakaria within the next few days.

According to a report from Tuttosport, talks are ongoing between West Ham and Juventus regarding the transfer of Denis Zakaria.

The East London outfit have been heavily linked with a move to sign the 26-year-old this summer, after Declan Rice left to join Arsenal.

Hammers boss David Moyes desperately needs to sign a top-class central midfielder in the summer transfer window, if we are to enjoy a successful season.

It seems as though Zakaria could well be the man who Moyes brings in to bolster his engine room this summer…

Denis Zakaria is now closing in on West Ham move

Tuttosport reckon that the Switzerland international could move to the London Stadium imminently.

I believe that Zakaria will be a very solid addition for West Ham, especially if we manage to pick him up for around £15 million.

However, I wouldn’t be spending any more than that kind of money if I were Moyes.

There are plenty of excellent players available in the transfer market this summer, and in my opinion, Moyes should be setting his sights a little higher than Zakaria.

However, the ex Chelsea loanee is a very decent footballer, and would be a strong addition for us on the one condition that Moyes brings in an elite defensive midfielder as well.

Either way, I really don’t won’t this one dragging on for too long.

Moyes needs to get the signing of a central midfielder over the line…and fast.
