The attacker from Russia - Fyodor Smolov - should join the "West Ham United" team this summer, and the player himself wants to finalize the deal before the World Cup, which will take place next summer.
According to Sky Sports News, F. Smolov wants to leave his current club "Krasnodar" in the near future, and the English team will have to pay at least ten million pounds for his buyout. It is said that "West Ham" negotiated for the player last summer, but at that time the "hammers" were not convinced whether the player was worth the requested sum by the Russians.
It is also reported that "Marseille" would like to have F. Smolov in their ranks, but the player himself is inclined to continue his career in London.
During his career at the "Krasnodar" club, F. Smolov scored 50 goals in 67 matches, and representing the Russian national team he scored 12 times in 30 matches.
