Aleix García Transfer from Girona to West Ham United
West Ham attempted to sign Aleix Garcia at the last moment, but Xabi Alonso's calls were decisive for Aleix to choose Bayer Leverkusen instead.
Aleix Garcia received an offer from West Ham, which led Bayer Leverkusen to increase their offer to nearly 20 million euros.
Because Leverkusen wanted to slightly reduce Garcia's release clause of 20 million euros, the transfer hit a snag - but it was never in jeopardy. Not even when West Ham emerged as another contender for Garcia. On Wednesday, West Ham pulled out of the Garcia race, clearing the way for Leverkusen.
West Ham, managed by Julen Lopetegui, also made a substantial financial offer to García, but Bayer Leverkusen ultimately won out.
West Ham is the club with the best financial offer. It has been reported from England that they would be willing to exceed 15 million to sign him and have offered him a salary of four million. However, they will not be competing in Europe. Julen Lopetegui is very fond of him and is one of his requests to his directors for this summer. The final decision will be made by Aleix García together with Girona. It won't be easy, but it is true that the player seems to have one foot and a half out of the red and white club.
'Catalunya Radio' recently reported that West Ham, with new Spanish coach Julen Lopetegui, has also entered the race for Garcia.
West Ham is showing interest in Aleix García, who has had an impressive season with Girona. They have reportedly submitted an offer of 16 million euros, which is higher than that of Bayer Leverkusen. If the transfer is confirmed, it could be a significant loss for Girona, as Aleix García is one of their key players.
West Ham are trying to derail Bayer Leverkusen's attempt to sign Girona midfielder Aleix Garcia.
According to 'Catalunya Radio', West Ham, with new Spanish coach Julen Lopetegui, is now also bidding for Garcia.
