Irons Rivalled For Ogbonna

West Ham have competition across Europe if they wish to sign Juventus defender Angelo Ogbonna this summer.

According to TMW, London rivals Tottenham are very interested in signing the Italian international centre-back this summer.

It was reported earlier this month that the Hammers, as well as Liverpool, had sent scouts to watch the 27-year-old in action for Juventus as both looked to add to their defensive ranks.

The Italian report also suggests that La Liga outfit Real Betis are also interested in signing the player.

Promoted to Spain’s top flite at the end of last season, Real Betis are looking to make another marquee signing following the addition of former Real Madrid and Tottenham attacking midfielder Rafael van der Vaart.

Ogbonna is a quick, agile defender who prefers to play on the left side of defence, and was recently part of a tweet-mishap from co-owner David Gold when attempting to announce the signing of Pedro Obiang.
