West Ham edging close to agreement with Juventus for Denis Zakaria

Premier League side West Ham are slowly reaching close to finding an agreement with Juventus for midfielder Denis Zakaria.

Giovanni Albanese has reported about the Hammers’ chase of the Swiss midfielder, stating that both clubs are locked in talks for Zakaria. While an agreement is not close, the distance between the clubs is no longer as much as it was last week and progress is being made.

Juve continue to want €25 million to sell the player, as that figure will allow the Bianconeri to make a good capital gain from how much they initially signed him for. West Ham are now offering €20 million plus bonuses but the situation is constantly evolving and progressing. There is a positive feeling that an agreement can be reached for a base fee of €18 million to €19 million plus bonuses that can take the deal to up to about €23 million. Slow progress is expected in the saga.
