Sport Witness Aston Villa and West Ham can ‚Äòsink the blow‚Äô to beat competition with ‚Äòimportant offer‚Äô By Naveen Ullal On May 21st, we covered claims from Italy that Aston Villa insist on signing Torino‚Äôs Raoul Bellanova. The Villans aren‚Äôt the only English club as West Ham are also in the mix to sign him in the summer window. That‚Äôs according to Tuttosport, relayed by ASRomaLive.it, who say the 24-year-old has ended up on the radar at Aston Villa and West Ham. The Premier League duo are mentioned in the report that says AS Roma are currently in the lead. It‚Äôs also explained that Napoli, Aston Villa and West Ham are all looking at the right-back, who has excelled for Torino in the recently concluded season. Last summer, the Turin club signed Bellanova from Cagliari, and his displays have seen him make his debut for Italy. The report says both Unai Emery‚Äôs side and West Ham ‚Äòappreciate‚Äô the progress he‚Äôs made at Torino, so much so that they could ‚Äònow sink the blow with an important offer‚Äô. With a deal expiring in 2027, Torino chairman Urbano Cairo would need at least ‚Ǩ25m to part ways with Bellanova, and the price could increase if he were to impress at the Euros. The outlet says Cario‚Äôs request is an issue for Roma, but that may not be the case for Aston Villa and West Ham. The Premier League duo ‚Äòappreciate‚Äô Bellanova, and they could make an offer to overcome competition in the next window. Bellanova spacer Sport Witness West Ham initiate contact over signing Argentine defender ‚Äì Hammers not stopping West Ham are one of the busiest Premier League teams at the start of the summer market. The Hammers have had a big concentration on Brazil and they should be able to conclude at least a couple of transfers from there. That isn‚Äôt the only business that West Ham, and their sporting director Tim Steidten, are currently dealing with, as claims come from Italy of an approach regarding Nehu?©n P?©rez. The 23-year-old Argentine plays for Udinese and has also been of interest to Napoli. According to the Gianluca Di Marzio‚Äôs report, Antonio Conte‚Äôs new club offered ‚Ǩ16m for a deal in the winter market, but were knocked back. Presumably any move would have to be for more than that bid. West Ham have made initial contact, and that was likely to find out the financials involved in a transfer and whether the player himself would be up for the move. There‚Äôs no indication yet over what the outcome is, or P?©rez‚Äôs view of a transfer to the London club."
