# West Ham fans revel in Pablo Fornals’ reported transfer involvement

Plenty of [West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2021/02/24/west-ham-keeping-tabs-on-connor-goldson/) fans have been revelling in a report from Spain suggesting that Pablo Fornals has been attempting to lure Sevilla striker [Youssef En-Nesyri](https://readwestham.com/2021/02/24/sevilla-draw-up-plan-for-west-ham-target-youssef-en-nesyri/) to east London.

[Estadio Deportivo](https://www.estadiodeportivo.com/sevilla/2021/02/23/antiguos-companeros-llamaron-nesyri-fichara/322258.html) claimed that a former teammate of the Moroccan who currently ‘resides’ with the Hammers had been in contact with the 23-year-old to persuade him to join the club [amid interest from the Irons](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9226203/West-Ham-set-ignite-35m-rated-Sevilla-star-Youssef-En-Nesyri-summer.html).

Fornals was a [teammate of En-Nesyri](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/youssef-en-nesyri/transfers/spieler/433049) during their [time at Malaga](https://www.malagacf.com/en/home/news/943) coming through the [youth ranks](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/pablo-fornals/transfers/spieler/357885), and it hasn’t taken long for some astute Hammers fans to connect those particular dots.

After combative midfielder Tomas Soucek [played a helping hand](https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2020/october/02-october/tomas-soucek-west-ham-fans-will-love-vladimir-coufal) in bringing Vladimir Coufal to the London Stadium, these Irons fans have been drawing a comparison to the player scouting network on [social media](https://twitter.com/WHUFCFZ/status/1364503243863293958), with one anticipating an incoming “masterclass” from Fornals…
