West Ham Linked With Player Shock

With West Ham expected to have to offload players in January even the fevered imaginations of Fleet Street hacks have struggled of late to link the club with possible targets. Setanta have now steeped into this void.

Setanta claim that West Ham are interested in 21 year old Sebastian Giovinco of Juventus. Zola knows the player from his days working with the Italian Under-21 squad. What adds credence to the story is that Setanta claim West Ham are looking to bring the midfielder in on loan.

However it looks like Giovinco may feature in Juve's European Championship game today so it doesn't exactly look like he is surplus to requirements for the Italian club.
