Steidten plans to plunder his former team for £35 million as part of a double Bundesliga agreement.

According to a recent source, Tim Steidten, the technical director of West Ham, is planning a double Bundesliga contract for Piero Hincapie that will cost him £35 million.

West Ham learned to their advantage during the summer transfer window that Tim Steidten frequently gets what he wants.

Following his assistance in one of the best transfer windows in West Ham’s recent history, the German technical director has quickly gained cult hero status.

When club talisman Declan Rice was transferred to rivals Arsenal and West Ham finished preseason with a dismal thrashing at the hands of Steidten’s former club Bayer Leverkusen, it was doom and gloom all around the club.

However, he would later assist the Hammers in making skillful use of the Rice funding by assisting in the signings of Mohammed Kudus, Edson Alvarez, James Ward-Prowse, and Konstantinos Mavropanos for a total of £122 million.

Of course, David Moyes, David Sullivan, and the West Ham board deserve praise as well.

But Steidten was the one who crossed the finish line with deals. West Ham supporters didn’t actually think a signing had taken place until they saw a photo of the player on an aircraft with the German, in fact.

However, it is said that the wicked cannot rest. And Steidten is undoubtedly wicked, as Ali G and the children may say.

Tim Steidten, West Ham’s technical director, allegedly plans a £35 million attack on an old club to get star Piero Hincapie as part of a double Bundesliga deal

Recently, we have been reporting on rumors that West Ham is getting ready to make a move for Serhou Guirassy, the hot-shot striker for Stuttgart.

The talented 27-year-old became the first player to ever score 13 goals in the first seven games of a German season at the weekend, breaking a Bundesliga record.

Undoubtedly, West Ham needs a new striker to eventually take Michail Antonio’s job.

And since Moyes returned in 2020, Guirassy has been connected to the Hammers almost every transfer window, including the summer.

Steidten searching for Antonio and Ogbonna’s heirs in his old haunts?

According to a recent source, West Ham technical director Steidten is currently negotiating a double Bundesliga deal with his former club for star Piero Hincapie worth £35 million.

The Hammers are allegedly considering a move for Guirassy as well. They also desire Ecuadorian international defender Hincapie of Bayer Leverkusen.

Amazingly, the 21-year-old has already represented his nation 27 times.

The left-footed center back is also capable of playing left-back, where West Ham needs a young youngster to take Emerson’s place in the upcoming seasons.

“The Hammers are eager now.”

Additionally, West Ham will require a replacement for left-footed center back Angelo Ogbonna, who is expected to retire after this season.

Steidten is reportedly quite interested in Hincapie, according to Claret and Hugh, though they caution that any deal won’t be inexpensive.

According to the newspaper, “Hincapie has been linked with a move away from the Bundesliga but the Ecuadorian international chose to stay.”

“The Hammers are now interested, which is not surprising given that Steidten will be familiar with the player from his time at Bayer Leverkusen.

“Steidten will know Hincapie well and will aim to utilize that to his advantage in his discussions because he has strong contacts inside the club. With an anticipated price tag of £35 million on his head, he won’t be cheap having committed to a contract through 2027 back in February.
