Youssef En-Nesyri, a long-time target of West Ham United, could finally be available this summer as his contract with Sevilla enters its final year.
With En-Nesyri’s contract expiring in June 2025, Sevilla faces a decision. They can either sell him this summer and recoup a significant transfer fee or risk losing him for free next year.
West Ham, who have repeatedly shown interest in En-Nesyri for several years, are back in the picture. With the striker’s future uncertain, the Hammers may see an opportunity to acquire him at a more favourable price.
Sevilla reportedly wants €20-25 million for En-Nesyri, a significant decrease from their initial expectations. This suggests a financial need for the club, making them more open to selling.
The longer Sevilla waits to sell En-Nesyri, the weaker their bargaining position becomes. The Irons might be able to secure a bargain deal if negotiations drag on.
Also at 27, En-Nesyri’s market value will likely decrease as he ages. Sevilla understands this and now recognises the importance of selling him this summer.
So the saga continues !
