Carlos Alberto On the Way to West Ham?

A story that has been around on the Internet for the last couple of days has now been picked up by The Sun, although I'm not sure that gives it any more legitimacy, is that Corinthians player Carlos Alberto is on the way to West Ham. It appears the player had a row with the Corinthians' manager after being subbed and now wants to leave the club.

As MSI own the contracts of most of the Corinthians' players, including Alberto, he is therefore being strongly linked with West Ham. The Sun go as far as to say that "the deal is being organised by Kia Joorabchian, head of the consortium bidding for the club."
