West Ham United are turning their attentions to La Liga once again. According to reports from Spain, mostly from AS newspapers, West Ham are targeting Athletic Bilbao’s centre-back Unai Nunez as a transfer target ahead of the upcoming January transfer window.
AS are claiming that the Hammers are willing to meet the 22-year-old’s buy-out clause once the January window opens. Reportedly, the clause stands at 30 million euros. This move could make sense from a couple of angles. First of all, Manuel Pellegrini is known for having done great work in Spain, mostly when he was Malaga head coach and he knows the market, which we have seen with his signature of Pablo Fornals from Villarreal last summer.
Nunez has only featured in six La Liga matches for Bilbao in the first half of the 2019-20 season and could therefore be available, whilst also it is worth noting West Ham are having a lot of problems in defence.
