West Ham is ready to rival Manchester United and Aston Villa in the pursuit of the highly skilled Italian defender, Raoul Bellanova.
West Ham’s exploration of prospective replacements for Aaron Cresswell and Ben Johnson, who are expected to go at the end of the season, is not surprising. TMW reports that a potential choice being discussed is the talented right-back Raoul Bellanova.
Torino purchased him last summer for a modest €7 million, but his worth has already risen since then due to his outstanding performance. The 23-year-old right-back has been one of the standout players for Torino this season, scoring one goal and assisting in five others in 27 Serie A matches.
Obtaining his signature will not be easy for the Hammers, as both Manchester United and Aston Villa are reportedly contemplating making a move. The allure of participating in Champions League matches at Villa Park or the status associated with playing for the Red Devils could present considerable competition for the Irons.
West Ham is now dealing with a substantial lack of depth in their defensive positions, as their backup choices are not meeting the required quality standards. It is expected that this matter will be resolved in the upcoming summer transfer window. Without a doubt, guys like Bellanova will unquestionably enhance the depth of their group.
