West Ham signing this talented Serie A dribbler would instantly end creative woes
Why Jeremie Boga could be a handy signing for West Ham
According to the Daily Star, West Ham have been linked with a move for former Chelsea academy prospect Jeremie Boga, who currently plies his trade with Sassuolo in the Italian Serie A.

As per the report, West Ham are in the winter market for some reinforcements, with David Moyes tasked with the job of steering the Hammers clear of the relegation zone.
The Marseille-born attacking midfielder spent six years in the youth system at Stamford Bridge but he made only a solitary first-team appearance for Chelsea following his promotion to the first-team ranks.
Boga’s time in West London was marked by loan spells at Rennes in France, Granada in the La Liga and Birmingham City in the EFL Championship before the 23-year-old eventually sealed a permanent transfer to Sassuolo in the summer of 2018, with Chelsea retaining a buy-back clause in the transfer agreement.
Back in December, a report from the Daily Mail claimed that Chelsea were exploring the possibility of bringing Boga back to Stamford Bridge in January for a fee of £3.5million.
Boga has progressed by leaps and bounds at Sassuolo since his departure from Chelsea and has evolved into a quality playmaker in the Serie A, registering 7 goals and 3 assists in 45 appearances across all competitions.
As per Whoscored, Boga boasts of a pass success rate of 85%, including a staggering 4.2 dribbles and 0.8 key passes per game in the Serie A this term, figures which speak volumes of his creativity, flawless passing in the final third and proficiency in beating defenders.
Meanwhile, West Ham crumbled to their first defeat under David Moyes on Friday night as the Hammers went down 1-0 to Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.
Having scored just 25 goals and conceded as many as 33 in 21 games so far, West Ham’s problems at both ends of the pitch have been well-documented.
With Declan Rice and Mark Noble the only viable options in the middle of the park, the club’s lack of depth in central midfield has been a major reason behind their undoing this season.
Despite having forked out a fortune to bring in Sebastien Haller and Pablo Fornals this past summer, West Ham have found themselves bereft of creativity and goals in the final third, and Moyes surely needs to find a way to put an end to the club’s attacking woes.
The likes of Felipe Anderson, Andriy Yarmolenko, Fornals and Manuel Lanzini just haven’t done enough in the creative department and bringing in a new attacking midfielder would certainly go a long way towards increasing competition for places in the ranks.
Jeremie Boga didn’t really get a crack of the whip at Chelsea to prove his mettle in the Premier League but his impressive numbers in Italy suggest that the 23-year-old has the raw materials to excel in English football.
Verdict
A versatile attacking midfielder capable of playing in a No.10 role behind the striker and also out wide on either flank, Boga might not be amongst the household names in Europe but he could well be the man to solve West Ham’s attacking woes.
Plus, the Ivorian international also has plenty of room for development at 23 and Moyes, who worked wonders with young talents during his managerial stint at Everton, will surely fancy his chances of getting the best out of Boga.

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: 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. (h/t Transfermarkt)
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.
