Report: West Ham make late bid to sign Idrissa Gueye

West Ham have reportedly made a late bid to sign former Everton midfielder Idrissa Gueye according to journalist Dave Appadoo.

There are no details around the structure or type of deal from the French journalist, however, but it is claimed the Hammers could make a late swoop for the PSG ace.

The 31-year-old central midfielder was a revelation during his in the Premier League and earned a big-money switch to France back in 2019.

Despite playing a large part of the campaign so far, Gueye is reportedly allowed to leave Paris as new manager Mauricio Pochettino puts his own stamp on the side.

The Senegalese international, who was described as ‘amazing’ by former teammate Morgan Schneiderlin, made 134 top-flight appearances during his time in England and became an integral part of Everton’s side.

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Having paid £30m for the midfielder less than two years ago, it is likely PSG would be keen to recoup a modest chunk of that fee should they sanction a late sale.

The Irons could certainly use a player like Gueye however, with Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek currently required without rest as David Moyes has little in the way of options to replace the duo.

Albeit not the striker craved, a late deal for the ex-Premier League star would be a nice tonic at the end of the transfer window.
