According to a recent report in A Bola, West Ham United has made a bid to acquire the talented 23-year-old Nuno Tavares during the upcoming summer transfer window.
In the latest developments on the transfer market, it has been revealed that West Ham United has expressed a keen interest in securing the services of the highly promising 23-year-old left-back, Nuno Tavares, during the forthcoming summer transfer window. Newspaper A Bola reports that the Hammers have taken proactive steps towards acquiring the Portuguese talent.
Despite Nuno Tavares currently plying his trade on loan at Olympique Marseille from Arsenal, it appears that his tenure in France is set to be short-lived. Sources suggest that the talented fullback does not feature in the plans of Gunners manager Mikel Arteta, thereby paving the way for a potential move to the London-based club.
A Bola’s report indicates that negotiations between the parties involved are ongoing, with Arsenal yet to determine an official transfer fee for Tavares’ permanent departure. However, it is believed that the Gunners are seeking to recoup a minimum of €8 million, which they originally invested to secure his signature from Benfica back in 2021.
Additionally, the Portuguese outlet dismisses the assertions made by the French media that Nuno Tavares could potentially extend his stay at Olympique Marseille, further solidifying West Ham’s pursuit of the highly-rated defender.
