Report: West Ham has signed Jose Mourinho favourite Roger Ibanez for £90.8 million

West Ham United are keen to sign centre-back Roger Ibanez from Roma in the summer transfer window.

According to Roma Giallorossa, West Ham could challenge Tottenham and Chelsea for the signature of Roger Ibanez this summer.

Hammers boss David Moyes will be keen to bolster his central defensive ranks at the London Stadium this summer.

Angelo Ogbonna is now 35 and is still yet to sign a new deal whilst Kurt Zouma seems to continually suffer with injury problems.

And it seems as though Moyes has someone specific in mind to come in this summer and really bolster his back-line…

West Ham could now sign Jose Mourinho favourite Roger Ibanez for £30 million
Roma Giallorossa reckon that the Hammers could be ready to battle Tottenham and Chelsea for the Brazilian’s signature.

I really hope that Moyes gets his hands on the Roma ace – he really is a very solid defender indeed.

Roma Press describe Ibanez as one of Mourinho’s favourites, and he played a key role for the Serie A side this season.

The two-caped Brazil international made 48 appearances in all competitions for Roma this term, and formed a vital part of their defence.

Ibanez is a strong centre-back, although he can also play at right-back or in defensive midfield.

Roma Giallorossa reckon that Roma will demand around €35 million (£30 million) for him this summer.

And for that money, I think that Roger Ibanez would be a really good signing for West Ham.
