According to a new report from leading French sports media outlet L'Equipe, English Premier League rivals West Ham United FC have now officially joined the race for Spanish midfielder Ivan Soler. Previously, both Aston Villa and Brighton had expressed strong interest in Soler in January this year, while Brighton are still making active inquiries about the possibility of a move for the midfielder.
Soler currently plays for Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain and his contract with the club expires in the summer of 2027. Despite the length of his contract, Soler remains an attractive prospect in the transfer market. The 27-year-old midfielder has won the favor of many European clubs due to his excellent skills and consistent performance.
According to market assessments, Soler is currently valued at around €20 million. In last season, he made 28 appearances for Paris Saint-Germain in all competitions, including 14 starts, contributing two goals and four assists to the team. These figures not only show his all-round ability as a midfielder, but also further prove his important position in the team.
The addition of West Ham United certainly adds more variables to the transfer of Soler. As one of the strongest teams in the Premier League, West Ham United has been looking for reinforcements to enhance the strength and competitiveness of the team. The arrival of Soler will undoubtedly inject new vitality and creativity into the team's midfield, providing a strong guarantee for the team to achieve better results in the Premier League and Europe in the new season.
However, Soler's transfer is also facing some challenges and uncertainties. On the one hand, Paris Saint-Germain, as a French Ligue 1 powerhouse, is naturally reluctant to let go of such a powerful player; on the other hand, Soler himself needs to carefully weigh various factors, including the post-transfer treatment, the team environment, and his personal career plan.
