West Ham is interested in a talented but disruptive winger.
Wilfried Gnonto to West Ham United during this transfer window is one of the most bizarre speculations circulating this afternoon. According to reports, Leeds United is relieved and optimistic that the player will join the Hammers.
According to European transfer specialist Sacha Tavolieri, Leeds plans to trade Gnonto to West Ham during the January transfer window, with the intention of replacing the Italy international with Burnley FC’s Manuel Benson. This is all extremely detailed information.
It’s unclear how this fits into David Moyes‘ notorious MOT test, given that the winger is known as “the most disruptive player in the Leeds dressing room.” It is hard to argue with the senselessness of signing a player who doesn’t seem to care about ruining the atmosphere in the locker room, especially considering Moyes’ track record of discipline.
After Leeds was relegated to the English Championship last summer, Gnonto reportedly stated that he wanted to quit the team. He is said to have started last season in an effort to ram through a £30 million transfer to Everton.
The 20-year-old Italian striker, who attended Inter’s Academy, has made 23 appearances this season in all competitions and has one goal and one assist. June 2027 is when his Leeds United contract is scheduled to end.
In 13 international matches, Gnonto has made one goal and two assists for the Azzurri since making his senior debut under Roberto Mancini in 2022.
