‘Fast winger’ really wants to join West Ham now and hopes Hammers bid again
Ibrahim Osman is keen on a move to David Moyes’s West Ham United before the January transfer window closes this week.
That is according to The Daily Mail, which has noted a major problem that West Ham are facing in getting a deal done.
So, what has been reported about West Ham United and Ibrahim Osman? Let’s take a look.
Ibrahim Osman wants to join West Ham United
Well, according to , West Ham United are interested in signing Ibrahim Osman from Nordsjælland in the final days of the January transfer window.
The report has claimed that West Ham have made a bid of £16 million for Osman. Danish club Nordsjælland have turned it down.
The Daily Mail has noted that the 19-year-old winger is “keen to move and is hoping West Ham revisit their bid”.
West Ham’s Premier League rivals, Brighton and Hove Albion and Crystal Palace, have also asked about a possible deal for Osman.
The Hammers are looking at other options now. The London club are in talks over signing Portuguese winger Jota from Al Ittihad.
My View: West Ham United should try again for Ibrahim Osman
In my opinion, if West Ham United think that Ibrahim Osman fits the profile of players they are looking for, then they should bid for him again.
Yes, Jota is a more mature player and a deal for him is likely to be a loan, but there is no guarantee that he will be able to hit the ground running at London Stadium.
Even if Osman took time to settle in at West Ham, the Premier League club would know that they would be able to help him develop and progress in the future.
FC Nordsjælland manager Johannes Hoff Thorup has described the teenager as who “might be really hard to keep”.
Arsenal have been linked with Osman, which shows how highly he is rated by big clubs.
