Fabrizio Romano puts his reputation on the line with new West Ham transfer claim

Fabrizio Romano has made a bold and confident claim about West Ham United’s pursuit of Max Kilman.

Max Kilman appears to be West Ham bound, after it emerged yesterday that the Hammers had lodged a £40 million bid for the 27-year-old.

Julen Lopetegui is believed to have pushed for the signing of Kilman since he took over at the London Stadium.

And Fabrizio Romano has now weighed into proceedings with his own information on the story.

The Italian journalist is widely respected in the game, and works day and night throughout the transfer window to keep fans updated in the world of football transfers.

Romano rarely gets things wrong, although he did recently poke fun at West Ham by suggesting that he’s hesitant to confirm West Ham deals until he sees the player in question holding up the shirt!

Along with the likes of David Ornstein and Mike McGrath, Fab is most fans’ go-to football journalist, when is comes to transfer news.

He has forged an immaculate reputation over the years, helped by numerous top-level contacts in very high places.

Now though, he has risked damaging his reputation with a new claim about one specific Hammers transfer…
