West Ham United’s newest signing Gianluca Scamacca admits he received recommendations to move to the London Stadium from both Pedro Obiang and Roberto Mancini.
Scamacca signed for West Ham for an undisclosed fee earlier this week in a deal believed to be worth £30.5million and became the club’s fourth signing of the summer, following Alphonse Areola, Nayef Aguerd and Flynn Downes in moves to the London Stadium.
The 23-year-old moved to West Ham after five years with Sassuolo. However, he only made 41 appearances for them in all competitions, leaving on loan four times for short stints with Cremonese, PEC Zwolle, Ascoli and Genoa prior to his stellar stint with Sassuolo later term.
