David Moyes’s West Ham United are reportedly leading the race for Juventus midfielder Denis Zakaria.
According to TMW, West Ham United are in pole position for Juventus defensive midfielder Denis Zakaria.
The Italian news outlet has claimed that West Ham have been in talks with Juventus for the former Chelsea loanee for a while now.
AS Monaco are also keen on Zakaria, a player Juventus are willing to sell for €20 million (£17.14 million).
West Ham United should get Denis Zakaria deal done now
In our opinion, West Ham United should seal the deal with Juventus for Denis Zakaria now.
There is no point in playing the waiting game any longer.
We know that the Hammers have been trying to sign the £52,000-a-week (SalarySport) Zakakia for weeks now.
It is high time that West Ham get a deal done.
If the former Chelsea loanee does not fancy a move to West Ham in the summer transfer window, then the Hammers should just move on and focus on other targets.
Zakaria spent the 2022-23 season on loan at Chelsea from Juventus.
Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano reported on May 30 that new Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino personally decided not to include the 26-year-old in his plans.
During his loan spell at Chelsea last season, the 26-year-old made five starts and two substitute appearances in the Premier League and one substitute appearance in the FA Cup.
West Ham won the UEFA Europa Conference League last season.
The Hammers will aim to finish in the top eight of the Premier League table next season and will also play in the UEFA Europa League.
Meanwhile, Juventus will be keen on challenging for the Serie A title next season.
