Virals: West Ham target Nikola Milenkovic available for £8.5m

West Ham transfer target Nikola Milenkovic could be made available at a bargain fee this summer. 

The Hammers have been credited with an interest in the Serbian for some time and could eventually land their man during this window. 

Set to enter the final 12 months of a contract with Fiorentina, the Irons face competition from Premier League rivals Everton and Tottenham to land the 23-year-old. 

According to a report from Italian journalist Paolo Bargiggia, as cited by The Mighty Hammers on Twitter, the centre-back could be available for €10million (£8.5million).

Milenkovic has established himself as a key player for the Serie A side and could turn to a new challenge for 2021/22. 

Capped 28 times at senior level by Serbia, the 6’4 ace made 37 appearances last term for La Viola, contributing three goals and one assist. 

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Valued at £22.5million (Transfermarkt), signing the defender for the suggested fee would be an incredible bargain. 

Capable of covering at right-back, Milenkovic would occupy an important squad role as well as providing an adequate replacement for the outgoing Fabian Balbuena. 

At the mooted price, David Moyes should look no further for the important defensive arrival. 

matchday.
