‘Better Than Broja’ ‘Would Take Us To The Next Level. Probably Won’t Happen’ Fans Discuss West Ham’s Move To Sign ‘Arnautovic 2.0’
West Ham have made an improved £36.5m bid for Sassuolo striker Gianluca Scamacca, according to reports in the Italian media.
The offer is said to be worth £31.4m up front, with another £5.1m in add-ons. At the moment, it is not known whether this new offer will be accepted or not.
Sassuolo are reportedly hoping for around €47m (£40m) in total so there is certainly room for compromise between the two sides. However, plenty of fans on Twitter are still not hopeful that a deal will be done:
Better than Broja.

Good player. Unfortunately, we wont ever see him in a West Ham shirt.

Would take us to the next level. Probably won’t happen. If you want to know more about him I can give some idea

I like him but does Moyes ? I can see us getting far down the road with this deal and Moyes pulling the plug cos he’s not sure on him, it has those vibes tbh and I’m sure C&H have already hinted at this !

Arnautovic 2.0 and that’s not a bad thing.. as much as they have that moody swag they can be fun and a wild card on the pitch 🫧⚒️

It does seem as though Hammers boss David Moyes may have decided to move on from the club’s pursuit of Chelsea’s Armando Broja after the Blues stalled on responding to their £30m bid.
Scamacca certainly showed last season that he has what it takes to lead the line. He bagged 16 Serie A goals for Sassuolo and many feel that, at 23 years of age, he could still improve.
