West Brom’s hope of bringing Grady Diangana back to The Hawthorns this have been dealt a blow, after a report from football.london claimed that West Ham have no plans to sell the attacker this summer.
Diangana joined the Baggies on loan from the Hammers last summer, and played a key role in helping the club win automatic promotion, scoring eight goals and providing a further six assists across the course of the campaign.
Perhaps not surprisingly therefore, it is thought that West Brom had been keen on a permanent move for Diangana this summer, although it now appears that is unlikely to happen.
According to the latest reports, West Ham have no intention of losing Diangana this summer, with Hammers boss David Moyes said to be a big fan of the 22-year-old, who he expects to play a big role for the club in the future.
Indeed, with five years remaining on Diangana’s contract at West Ham, there is no pressure on the club to sell the attacker in the next few weeks.
Taking to Twitter to react to that news, plenty of West Brom fans appeared to be disappointed, but perhaps not surprised, by West Ham’s stance with regards to interest in Diangana.
Here, we take a look at what some of those supporters had to say.
They’d be crazy to sell but I hope this is just the standard negotiating tactic.
I hope at least they would be willing to loan him out to us again but if they do, we better not have a January recall option because I can’t go through a third January in a row of recall anxiety!!😭— JonW1995 (@JonW1995) August 4, 2020
If this is true im gutted we should buy Robinson along with Pereira and Krovinovic now this was the absolute heart of our team get these permanent then build from there because if not it’s going to be really hard to get the team even as good as last season never mind improvement
