Arsene Wenger’s pursuit of West Ham midfielder Mohamed Diame could bear fruit this week with reports in the Daily Mail claiming that the Senegalese wants a move to the North London club. Sam Allardyce is also displeased with the 25 year-old after he turned up late for a team meeting last week and the Hammers could consider offloading the defensive midfielder.
Allardyce had summoned a 7 a.m. meeting at their training centre to discuss their shortcomings in Wednesday night’s 5-1 thumping at Arsenal. Diame faced the brunt of Allardyce’s wrath after turning up an hour late for the meeting. The midfielder now has his heart set on a move to Arsenal and the Gunners could also take advantage of the situation to trigger the £3.5 million buyout clause in his contract.
West Ham were earlier understood to be unwilling to sell their star and were trying to double the player’s release clause with a new deal to ward off interest from Arsenal as well as their North London rivals Tottenham. However, talks of a new contract have hit a roadblock and after a fallout with Allardyce, the enforcer could be on his way out of Upton Park this winter.
I will b hapi if mr wenger cn bring diame 2 emirate cos we really need him n i think he need us 2. Pls mr wenger get d guy on d cheap b4 rivals hijack him away
And Wenger will not buy.. Becos i dont think he is exceptional.
diame is just not good enough. if he was, why are no other clubs desperate to sign him?
Wenger knows which player suits arsenal play and that can add value to the existing squad.my problem with him is economic value he attaches to transfer deals.if Diame is his kind of player,let him go for him and stop beating about the bush
Wenger shuld sign diame 4 us as a cheap rate we r in need 4 midfielder woo can cover 4 d defensive
