According to a report by Italian news outlet Calcio Napoli 24, via West Ham News, Barcelona defender Junior Firpo has been offered to both Napoli and West Ham United – with the defender apparently preferring a move to England as his agent waits for the Hammers to reply.
Firpo, who got to show his potential for the La Liga giants in flashes last campaign, starting 11 domestic matches, has struggled for those same opportunities during the 2020/21 campaign (WhoScored).

As a result, the player’s agent has reportedly offered him up to both the Irons and Napoli – but West Ham hold an upper hand with the 24-year-old seemingly enticed by a move to the Premier League.
In reaction to this report, regardless of his limited game time, many Irons have implored GSB to sign the Spaniard as this new link emerges – with one going on to brand him ‘world class’.

“If that Italian report is correct, West Ham should be sorting that Junior Firpo deal out. Such a promising left back at his age, was fantastic at Betis. He’d suit our formation as well”
