Sport nationThe transfer window is heating up, and the latest news surrounding Carlos Soler has sent shockwaves throughout the football world. The Paris Saint-Germain midfielder has been linked to several Premier League clubs, but according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, West Ham United is leading the race to sign him.
Soler, a 27-year-old Spanish midfielder, has been described as a “complete midfielder” who can play in various roles. His style of play has been compared to that of compatriots Santi Cazorla and David Silva, who played for Arsenal and Manchester City respectively. Curro Torres, who coached Soler at Valencia, praised him, saying, “He’s the complete midfielder and can act as a six, an eight or a 10; he has power, arrives in the box and can score.”
West Ham United has been pushing hard to sign Soler, with director Tim Steidten and manager Julen Lopetegui driving the deal forward. Romano reports that Soler’s priority is to join West Ham, despite interest from other clubs, including Everton. The Hammers are willing to pay around €23million (£19.5million) including add-ons to secure Soler’s services.
Everton had been linked with Soler in recent days, but it appears that West Ham has stolen a march on their rivals. The Toffees will need to act quickly if they want to sign Soler, with the transfer window set to close on August 30. However, it seems unlikely that Everton will be able to persuade Soler to join them, given his preference for West Ham.
The signing of Soler would be a significant coup for West Ham, who are looking to strengthen their midfield options. The Spanish midfielder would bring a new level of quality to the Hammers’ squad, and his versatility would make him a valuable asset.
While Everton fans will be disappointed to hear that Soler’s priority is to join West Ham, they can take heart from the fact that their club is still actively seeking to strengthen their squad. The Toffees have been linked with several other midfielders, and it’s likely that they will make a signing before the transfer window closes.
In contrast, West Ham fans are ecstatic at the prospect of signing Soler. The midfielder’s arrival would be a significant boost to the Hammers’ chances of success this season. With Soler in their squad, West Ham would have a much stronger midfield, and their chances of finishing in the top six would increase significantly.
As the transfer window enters its final days, the drama surrounding Soler’s future is set to unfold. Will West Ham be able to secure his signature, or will another club come in and steal him away? One thing is certain – Carlos Soler is a talented midfielder who would be a valuable addition to any Premier League club.
