West Ham got the guarantee they wanted. I told them the amount three or four weeks ago: \u00a385m to sign Matheus Fernandes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And now this player has signed for \u00a385m. We said in the video two days ago that payment terms were going to be important. They didn&#8217;t want a structure with too many add-ons or complicated routes to price. Now the price has been reached. We&#8217;ve reached \u00a385m for a player that Roberto De Zerbi really wanted.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ll keep an eye on the next move because Tottenham are still in talks with Newcastle over Sandro Tonali and we&#8217;ll have to see how that develops too.
