West Ham United have reportedly initiated talks to sign 21-year-old Juventus attacker Matias Soule this summer.
Matias Soule impressed during his loan spell with Frosinone this past season, and West Ham United have now started talks to sign the 21-year-old according to a report by Italian outlet Tuttosport.
The Argentine winger is valued at €40 million, and it will be interesting to see if the Hammers decide to submit an offer for him. They will need more quality in the attacking unit, and Soule would be a superb acquisition.
He could complete the West Ham attacking unit next season. The Argentine attacker could operate on the left side of a front three alongside Mohammed Kudus and Jarrod Bowen. So, it is hardly surprising that West Ham are showing interest in the young prospect.
West Ham need more quality and depth in their squad to do well next season. They will be hoping to compete in European football regularly, and signing players like Soule would be a wise decision.
The attacking prospect is highly rated across Europe, and he has a bright future. He could develop into a top-class player with the right guidance. The 21-year-old is already operating at a high level in the Serie A. It remains to be seen whether the Hammers can get the deal done.
They have brought in a quality manager like Julen Lopetegui and the Spaniard will hope to guide them to a respectable finish next season. The new West Ham manager must look to plug the gaps in his squad, and signing a quality attacker should be one of their priorities.
Soule should look to join West Ham
The 21-year-old will look to continue his development with regular football. Ample game time in the Premier League will only accelerate his development and help him fulfil his potential. Soule has the physical and technical attributes to do well in the Premier League, and it will be interesting to see if he can hit the ground running in English football if the transfer goes through.
The €40 million investment might seem steep right now. But the player has the potential to justify the outlay in the coming seasons. The attacker is unlikely to get regular opportunities at Juventus, and a move to West Ham would be ideal for him as well.
