FIVE things Hammers need to know about this transfer target

|

Well once again we are after a highly sort after Argentine. Though after the last Argentine players to play for us, I think we need to know a few things about this one and not have us paying 6 million pounds in fines for signing them.

1.Claudio Yacob is a ball winning midfielder; he would fit into that role behind Mark Noble.

2. He has been capped for the Argentine national team. 3 appearances and has one goal in that time.

3. Since 2008, he has been Racing FC’s captain. Which was given to him when he was just 20 years old.

 

4. In 2007, he was a key member of the Argentine U-20 squad that won the World Cup in Canada. Also in that Argentina team was Angel Di Maria and Sergio Aguero. In some decent company then.

5. Unfortunately we aren’t the only English club after him, Arsenal and Manchester United were rumored to be interested and Arsenal was strongly rumored to have made a formal approach earlier this year.
