da cassino: Reported West Ham United summer target, Sasa Kalajdzic, has opened up on his future at Bundesliga side VfB Stuttgart.
da bet sport: So far this season, Kalajdzic has been in extremely fine form over his 25 league appearances for Pellegrino Matarazzo’s side, scoring 13 goals and providing three assists, as well as averaging a WhoScored match rating of 6.99 – ranking him as the club’s fifth-best performer in the German top flight.
As a result of his impressive displays, it has been reported that GSB are keen on bringing the £6.3 million-rated centre-forward to east London in the summer transfer window, however, in recent comments made to Kicker, as cited by Fussball Transfers (via Sport Witness), the 23-year-old appeared to suggest he is more than happy at Stuttgart.
He said: “I am happy to be with VfB because I like to play at VfB and know that I am valued. I am in Stuttgart with head and heart.”
Transfer Tavern Take
The comments of Kalajdzic, who is reported to be valued between €20-25 million (£17.2-21.5 million) by Stuttgart, are likely to come as a blow to David Moyes and his side, as the 57-year-old has still yet to replace Sebastien Haller, who left West Ham for Ajax in the January window.
Indeed, with Michail Antonio being the Scot’s only option as a senior centre-forward in his first-team squad, the position is somewhere it would appear crucial for the Hammers to invest in this summer, although, a move for Kalajdzic appears, at present, to be rather unlikely.
