Done deal West Ham has successfully signed  Liverpool Manchester United and Arsenal target £150m

West Ham are being linked with an incredibly exciting move to sign Barcelona sensation Ansu Fati.

Interestingly, West Ham United allegedly tried to sign Ansu Fati from Barcelona before, back in 2020.

And it seems as though David Moyes could be set to go back in for Barca wonderkid Fati…

West Ham handed huge Ansu Fati boost
According to The Athletic, Fati should prepare for the worst because it will take a miracle for him to remain at Barca beyond the end of the summer transfer window.

When Fati burst onto the scene at with Barcelona four years ago, he was labelled as the ‘new Messi’ (talkSPORT).

However, his form has really dropped off over the past years or so, with injuries having wreaked havoc with his progress.

In spite of that, Fati is still an unbelievably talented young player.

The 20-year-old possesses electric pace, exceptional skill and a really intelligent football brain that defies his tender years.

He has bagged 29 goals and 10 assists in 109 games for Barcelona (Transfermarkt) – a pretty decent return for someone so young.

Forbes claim that he could be available for around €70 million (£60 million) this summer.

In fairness I can’t see David Moyes paying anywhere near that amount to bring him to the London Stadium this summer.

However, if Barcelona truly are so keen to move Ansu Fati on, I wouldn’t be surprised one little bit if West Ham were able to pick him up for half that fee in the summer transfer window.

Arsenal keen to land Declan Rice
The Evening Standard reports how Arsenal are actively pursuing a deal for Rice to come to The Emirates. But even though they have money available – over £200m – the Gunners want to spend it wisely.

They are said to be willing to go to around £90m to sign Rice and hope the Hammers can compromise.

However, David Moyes has said all along that should Rice be sold, then it will be on terms that suit the club. The West Ham board, then, could well hold out knowing there is so much interest.
Rice himself is known to be open to a move to Arsenal. He has had talks with Thomas Tuchel at Bayern but believes staying in England is the best thing for his career right now.

Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man United have all been credit with holding an interest in the England man.

A must do for the Gunners
If Arsenal are intent on challenging City again and want to show everyone they can do the business in the market, then they have to get this deal for Rice done.

It might cost them a huge sum but they need to show they can get big deals finished off. So far, despite their good signings, they’ve missed out on a number of big names.

If they can get the deal over the line for Rice, then it sends a message to the rest of Europe
