West Ham United are being linked with Yacine Brahimi.
Don Hutchison has claimed on Twitter that he advised former West Ham United boss David Moyes to sign Yacine Brahimi.
The 28-year-old attacker is reportedly on West Ham, Everton and Newcastle United’s radar, according to The Sun.
Brahimi has been one of Porto’s best players since joining from Granada in 2014, and Hutchison claims that he recommended him to Moyes when he replaced Slaven Bilic at the Hammers this time last year.
It remains to be seen if West Ham really are interested in the Algeria international, given the news about Samir Nasri.
According to Sky Sports, Nasri is undergoing a medical with the East London club today ahead of potentially joining on a short-term basis.
The 31-year-old is not eligible to play until January, when his doping ban expires, but he is of a similar mould to Brahimi and although having both would do no harm to a team struggling in the Premier League, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.
Born in France, Brahimi has 11 goals in 39 appearances for Algeria.
