West Ham signing this Championship commander will solve one of Pellegrini’s key concerns

Signing John Fleck will provide enough cover for the tiring Mark Noble

According to Sky Sports, Sheffield United’s Scottish midfielder John Fleck is attracting massive interest from Manuel Pellegrini’s West Ham United side who are currently in the market for a central midfielder.

West Ham haven’t had an overly fantastic season because it’s been extremely inconsistent and riddled with silly individual mistakes that have cost them an unbelievable number of results.

Currently at 12th place, they have managed to notch up 31 points and sit just two points off 8th placed Everton. While their league position could change dramatically in the matter of a single game week, more was expected of Pellegrini’s men this term.

They pulled off some amazing signings over the summer, which saw the talented likes of Felipe Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko join the ranks at West Ham. Even during the current transfer window, they were able to sign Samir Nasri, who is a top quality player.

Central midfield was supposed to be one of their areas of strength going into the season with four top-class players available at Pellegrini’s disposal but the pressures of the Premier League ended up giving the Hammers a massive reality check.

Carlos Sanchez and Jack Wilshere both picked up long-term knocks, which left them with only two recognised central midfielders – Pedro Obiang and veteran Mark Noble.

While young defender Declan Rice has been a revelation in the midfield so far this term, there is still the need for someone capable of controlling the pace of the game with neat passing and movement.

If Sky Sports reports are to be believed, John Fleck of Sheffield United is the man who Pellegrini is looking to sign. He is a box-to-box midfield player who has a very balanced attribute sheet. His passing, vision and finishing are all off the charts.

His range of passing is sublime while he has the composure to execute these passes with intuitive perfection. His ball retention is another attribute to race about as he barely ever loses the ball.

His set-piece delivery will be a massive asset to West Ham as the likes of Andy Carroll and Michael Antonio will really flourish with some top quality deliveries. His mazy runs from the midfield are difficult to stop while he watches like a hawk for key passes.

He would be a wonderful addition to the West Ham side as Mark Noble can then be rested every now and then. Also, Rice’s defensive work will allow the Scotsman to prosper in London and Pellegrini shouldn’t think twice about this.

Report: Celtic dealt blow in pursuit of 19-year-old Serie A ace

Celtic dealt major blow in pursuit of Bologna star Aaron Hickey

According to La Nazione (h/t Daily Record), Fiorentina have intensified negotiations with fellow Serie A club Bologna for the signing of Celtic target Aaron Hickey, dealing a blow to the Hoops.

Hickey started out at the academy of Scottish club Heart of Midlothian FC and briefly spent time at Celtic as well before returning to Hearts, where he graduated to the first-team and went on to make 34 senior appearances.

The young left-back, who scored and assisted one goal apiece for his boyhood club, was snapped up by Serie A side Bologna in the summer of last year. Hickey did not feature regularly for the Serie A outfit due to injury problems. Indeed, the 19-year-old featured in just 12 games throughout the 2020/21 season.

But his stock remains high as ever, as Celtic are intent on bringing him back to Scotland this summer. The Hoops, embarking on a new journey under new manager Ange Postecoglou, are looking to bolster their defensive department.

Having decided not to sign Diego Laxalt permanently, Celtic have just Boli Bolingoli and Greg Taylor as options at left-back, with the former unsure of a future after returning from loan. So, signing someone like Hickey, who can make the spot his own for the coming years, would have been a good move.

However, Fiorentina seem to have thrown a spanner in the works for Celtic as the Serie A side have upped their efforts to land the youngster from Bologna. Indeed, it is reported that La Viola have intensified negotiations over a move, although they will have to offer at least €5m to stand a chance of signing the teenager.

Bologna are in no hurry to sell Hickey and will wait for the highest bid as they look to maximise their profits. It is now up to Celtic to step up in their pursuit of the 19-year-old or risk missing out on him.

Transfer News: PL side enter race to sign 25-year-old Rangers star

Transfer News: Rangers star Glen Kamara wanted by Everton

According to transfer news from Eurosport (h/t Glasgow Live), Premier League club Everton have entered the race to sign Glen Kamara from Scottish champions Rangers this summer.

Kamara started out his youth football in his homeland, Finland, before switching to England in 2011 when he signed for the Southend United academy. A year later, he was snapped up by Premier League giants Arsenal, where he rose through the youth ranks but couldn’t break into the first-team.

After loan spells away at Southend United and Colchester United, Kamara left Arsenal permanently in the summer of 2017, signing for Scottish club Dundee FC. The 25-year-old Finnish midfielder rose to prominence with the club and was picked up by Steven Gerrard’s Rangers in the winter transfer window of 2019.

During his two-and-a-half-year stay at the Ibrox Stadium, Kamara has developed into one of the best midfielders on show in the Scottish Premiership. The Finland star played an integral role in the Gers’ title victory last season as he racked up over 50 appearances in all competitions, scoring and assisting a couple of goals apiece.

However, Kamara’s time at the Ibrox Stadium could be drawing towards a close, with Everton joining a number of other clubs in pursuit of the ex-Arsenal youngster. Indeed, the likes of Watford and Brentford have already shown an interest in the 25-year-old while an unnamed Russian club is also keen, with the Toffees also joining the bandwagon.

Given how important Kamara has been for Rangers in his time at the club, his potential departure would come as a blow. However, with his contract expiring in two years and with so many teams interested, this also represents the Gers best chance of making good money from his sale, which they can reinvest in the squad.

With a transfer fee of £15m being mentioned, the Light Blues could stand to make a massive profit, having signed him for a measly £50k in 2019.
