West Ham rekindle interest in Juventus’ Filip Kostić | OneFootball

Premier League side West Ham have reignited their former interest in Filip Kostic.

According to a report by Nicola Balice, West Ham have activated their previous contacts with Juventus’ Filip Kostic in recent days and may materialise a move soon.

The Bianconeri are now working with the Serbian’s agent Alessandro Lucci to attract the Hammerers to sign the player who are at the same time in search of a left-footed winger. The Serie A giants value Kostic at €15 million for a permanent transfer but are also open to loaning him with a right-to-buy option, provided that the conditions are favourable for them.

The Premier League outfits made considerable progress during the last summer transfer window to land the 30-year-old who ultimately went for Massimiliano Allegri’s team from Eintracht Frankfurt.

Time is very short for either side to complete the deal if it happens but we have seen numerous shocking deadline-day transfers in the past and this might be one of them in the making.
