People at London Stadium could be forced to replace David Moet Everton&#8217;s side. And what better way to trade a towering midfielder than signing a player to &#8220;shut down&#8221; former Star Rice?<\/p>\n<p>According to TeamTalk, West Ham was first contacted to sign Unus Musa of AC Milan this summer. American International initially looked to the way to Serie A champion Napoli in a 25 million euro (\u00a321 million) deal before Milan changed its stance and demanded its price and add-on. Now the hammer has the opportunity to sneak up in front of Naples.<\/p>\n<p>    Whether West Ham is willing to do something that Naples isn&#8217;t will be a big question, but their interest in Musa is not surprising. At the age of 22, the midfielder has had some impressive experiences under his belt at the top level, including the 2022 World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>In Qatar, it was Qatar that helped the Milan men get a 0-0 draw for America, especially against the three lions against England. As a result, with the acclaim of Jacek Kulig, the scouts claimed that both Musah and Tyler Adams would &#8220;close&#8221; England&#8217;s midfield, which includes Rice and Jude Bellingham.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hammer reportedly contacted to sign the impressive Serie a midfielder who once pocketed Declan Rice as Graham Potter appears to shape his West Ham United ahead of his first full season rep.
