West Ham United Are Keeping Tabs On This Gifted Winger: Good Option For Moyes? | OneFootball

In a recent report, El Crack Deportivo mentioned that West Ham United are keeping tabs on River Plate winger Pablo Solari. It has been stated that the Hammers are eyeing a move to bring the South American sensation to the Premier League in the future.

Solari’s Impressive Rise In Argentine Football

Solari had a brilliant campaign at River Plate last season when he put in a series of eye-catching displays on the right side of their attack. The Argentine talent banged in ten goals and grabbed ten assists in 34 appearances for his current club in the previous campaign across multiple competitions.

The 22-year-old has proven his worth as a productive presence for River Plate in the final third based on his average of 2.0 shots, 1.3 key passes and 1.4 dribbles per game in Liga Profesional this year. However, he needs to take care of the ball a bit better in the opposition half after making only 68.6% of his attempted passes in league football (stats via whoscored).

His current contract at the Argentine club will expire at the end of 2026. Thus, West Ham would have to make a sizable offer if they are serious about recruiting him next year.

Will Solari Be A Good Option For West Ham United Boss David Moyes?

Solari can shoot the ball with venom and accuracy from long range and is a technically gifted footballer. He has got the vision to create a few decent openings for his teammates up top.

The Argentine sensation is a great dribbler with the ball at his feet and has added plenty of goals and assists to his game. He is primarily a right-winger but can also function as a left-sided wide player if asked to do so.

Solari is already good enough to challenge for a regular spot in West Ham boss David Moyes’ first XI. At 22, the future looks quite promising for the River Plate talent which makes him a decent option for the East London club to pursue for the long run.

Hence, the Hammers should focus on going all out to get a deal done for him in 2024. However, only time will tell whether he can make a smooth transition to life in England.
