West Ham to bid 10m for Savio Nsereko

West Ham United are set to bid £10m for Brescia’s 19 year old German striker Savio Nsereko. Ugandan born Nsereko was part of the German squad that won the 2008 U-19 European Championship, and was also voted the best player of the tournament. He currently plays in Serie B, but is very highly rated by West Ham’s technical director Gianluca Nani, who was at Brescia prior to moving to Upton Park.

If the deal does go through, Nsereko will become West Ham’s most expensive signing ever, beating the £7.5m the club paid for buying Craig Bellamy for Liverpool. Bellamy left for Man City yesterday, with the Eastlands club paying £14m to the Hammers for his signature.

Napoli, Genoa, Inter and Roma are among the Italian clubs chasing Nsereko, who began his career in Germany with TSV Munich before moving to Brescia in 2005.

Liverpool are also reportedly tracking his progress.

The Hammers are also hoping to sign Daniel Pablo Osvaldo on loan from Fiorentina this month.
