West Ham United agree personal terms with Jota Silva, Jose Mourinho wants to hijack deal for Fenerbahce

Fanatik reports that West Ham United and Jota Silva have reached a personal agreement over a move to the London Stadium.

The Portuguese international is coveted by Jose Mourinho at Fenerbahce, according to a report published on their website on June 27 (A Bola, June 16). However, the move has been complicated by the player’s existing contract with the Hammer.

But instead of fulfilling their £17.1 million release clause [Sebastiao Sousa Pinto, May 27],

West Ham is considering other options that would put Mourinho’s team back in the running to sign him.

West Ham United is getting closer to acquiring Jota Silva.
Even though Luis Guilherme’s transfer was completed earlier in the summer transfer window, Julen Lopetegui is still eager to expand his team’s offensive alternatives.

Major questions surround Danny Ings’ and Michael Antonio’s futures.

Jarrod Bowen is also attracting a lot of attention, while Lucas Paqueta’s betting accusations raise doubts about his future there as well.

Thus, fresh players are undoubtedly needed, and Jota Silva is someone who could raise the caliber of the side at a reasonable cost.

Silva would offer excellent competition in the attacking areas

and may significantly help Lopetegui have more depth and more alternatives throughout the season after he scored 15 goals and provided seven assists in the 2023–24 campaign.

However, a deal would have to be made fast to beat the competition, and now that Mourinho is involved, it might just take a single talk to divert his focus from east London.
