West Ham have submitted a bid for Monaco’s Soungoutou Magassa and are pushing to complete a deal for the Monaco midfielder. Graham Potter is looking to make two additions in midfield and is moving ahead with his plans after an agreement was reached for Edson Álvarez to join Fenerbahce on loan. Talks are taking place between West Ham and the Turkish club regarding the final details of a deal for the Mexico international.
Targeting the 21-year-old Magassa is a sign of West Ham’s desire to add youth and energy to their squad. He made 29 appearances in all competitions for Monaco last season, playing in the Champions League, and represented France Under-21s at this summer’s European Championship.
