The transfer of Ghanaian wonderkid Ibrahim Osman from FC Norsdjaelland to West Ham United is still up in the air over Nordsjaelland’s stance.
According to football transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, the Danish club is holding out for more money to green light the move for the 19 year old winger to join The Hammers.
Reports have heavily linked Osman to the London side with 18 million euros being the initial asking price but Nordsjaelland wants more than the reported amount. (Click highlighted text to read full story)
Despite the complications that have emerged, Romano reports that the deal hasn’t “collapsed” as Osman and his agent have agreed personal terms with West Ham.
Osman has emerged as one of the most sought after players in the world with the Right To Dream Academy product registering a goal and four assists in 16 Danish Superliga games.
In six UEFA Europa Conference League games, Osman has a goal in six outings in his first season with Nordsjaelland.
Should he move to West Ham, Osman will be the fifth Ghanaian player to play for West Ham; former Right To Dream Academy product Mohammed Kudus is excelling in his debut season with West Ham.
