# West Ham price ‘agreed’ as insider shares Nikola Vlasic update

**[West Ham United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-ham-news/) insider Claret & Hugh have moved to rebuff recent exits claims surrounding Nikola Vlasic, sharing an update on the Croatian.**

### The Lowdown: Vlasic dazzles…

The 2021 Hammers summer signing endured a tough first season under manager David Moyes at the London Stadium, starting just six [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) games whilst only scoring a solitary goal ([WhoScored).](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/343975/History/Nikola-Vlasic)

As a result, West Ham saw fit to negotiate a 2022/2023 temporary spell away from east London with the 25-year-old joining Torino on a [loan-to-buy deal.](https://www.whufc.com/news/nikola-vlasic-joins-torino-loan)

Since completing the move, Vlasic has come on leaps and bounds in Serie A, currently ranking as Torino’s [second-best performer](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/72/Show/Italy-Torino) by average match rating.

However, recent claims from Italy have suggested that Torino are still hesitant over taking up his option-to-buy – namely because of interest from AC Milan and a mooted £19 million price tag ([Calciopolis).](https://www.calciopolis.it/2022/10/16/vlasic-torino-milan-west-ham/)

### The Latest: C&H share Vlasic ‘reality’…

After this rumour, Irons insider C&H have moved to share the ‘reality’ behind his situation.

They claim, via a key source, that the fee is actually around €13 million (£11m) and a permanent deal option price is ‘already agreed’ between Torino and West Ham.

The source in question [told them:](https://www.claretandhugh.info/candh-exclusive-hammers-reveal-the-vlasic-truth/)

*“Once again it appears to be a case of news sources making up stories as there is no truth in a figure of £19 million.*

*“The reality is that a figure of €13 million euros has been agreed between the clubs.”*

### The Verdict: Cheap as chips?

Given the former CSKA Moscow star’s form in Turin, West Ham may regret already agreeing an £11m option for Torino to sign him permanently.

Vlasic’s form right now is an indicator he could even come back to east London and prove a success for Moyes with the right attitude, but alas, if he continues this run, we believe it is likely Ivan Jurić will push his Torino side to seal a fairly cheap move.
