West Ham are eyeing Delgado<\/a> and have been joined by Brighton in the race, making it a potentially lucrative sale for the Argentine club. <\/p>\nShould the Boca president get his way, a release clause in the region of \u00a333million would be included in the Argentine midfielder\u2019s contract.<\/p>\n
While he does not want to lose one of his best players, a sale would revitalise the fortunes of the club, making it an uneasy decision for the president.<\/p>\n
What CHANGES would you make to our West Ham v Fulham combined XI? <\/p>\n
We just HAD to shoehorn both Bowen and Harry Wilson in\u2026<\/p>\n

Who is West Ham target Milton Delgado?<\/p>\n
Delgado is a 5ft 5in defensive midfielder who hails from Argentina and is one of the country\u2019s best young midfielders.<\/p>\n
He has been playing senior football for over a year and has already caught the eye of some sides in Europe.<\/p>\n

While he is relatively short, he is known for his physicality and tenacity, making him an ideal fit for the Premier League.<\/p>\n
His best role is playing as the sitting midfielder in a double pivot, as he is good at winning the ball and recycling possession. <\/p>\n
Delgado is also lauded for his maturity, as he has the ability to run a game from deep and is someone who has leadership skills at a very young age.<\/p>\n
Nuno could certainly do with someone like the Argentine, but it would need him at least half a season to adapt to life in England.<\/p>\n
What West Ham need is someone who can hit the ground running and strengthen the team, either in defence or in the final third. <\/p>\n
