West Ham United’s Edimilson Fernandes scored a cracker for his loan club on Sunday.
Plenty of West Ham United fans on Twitter want Edimilson Fernandes back this summer.
The West Ham loanee opened his account for Fiorentina on Sunday by drilling home an equaliser in the 1-1 draw away to Udinese.
Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini deemed him surplus to requirements last summer and sanctioned a season-long loan to Italy.
But with Jack Wilshere still injured, and Pedro Obiang having a poor season, Edimilson might have played quite a bit had Pellegrini kept him in East London.
Nevertheless, many Irons fans want to see the Chilean manager keep him this summer.
The problem here is that Fiorentina have the option to sign Edimilson permanently, according to The Standard.
If the 22-year-old, who has started 13 Serie A games this season, impresses the Italian outfit enough then it’s completely out of West Ham’s hands.
He joined United in 2016 under Slaven Bilic, costing around £5.5 million [Daily Mail].
