West Ham are NOT in talks with Javier Pastore over summer move from Paris Saint-Germain
The Hammers could miss out on the Argentine midfielder, who is reportedly already in talks over a switch to Roma
West Ham are yet to open talks with Paris Saint-German attacking midfielder Javier Pastore, according to reports in France.
The Argentina international has decided to leave the French champions this summer as he wants more regular football.
West Ham are interested in the 28-year-old and new manager Manuel Pellegrini had added him to the club’s shortlist of top summer targets.
But, according to L’Equipe, the Hammers are still yet to kick off talks for Pastore with PSG.
Instead, the playmaker is deep in talks with Roma after their sporting director, Monchi, flew to Paris earlier this week.
The Italian club have also set their sights on Pastore and they have begun negotiations in the hope a deal can be struck soon.
It means West Ham must act quickly or they risk losing out on one of their top targets.
