The West Ham United midfielder could leave if there are further arrivals at the club.
The closing stages of the transfer window could be rather hectic for West Ham as manager David Moyes seeks to ensure that his squad is in the best possible shape to preserve their Premier League status.
West Ham have already completed the signing of midfielder Joao Mario on loan from Inter Milan and there could be further arrivals at the London Stadium before Wednesday night’s deadline, with Anderlecht midfielder Leander Dendoncker being targeted, as reported by Sky Sports.
According to Calciomercato, if Dendoncker does join West Ham then it could lead to Pedro Obiang moving to Fiorentina.
The West Ham midfielder has been heavily linked with a switch to Serie A, where he previously played with Sampdoria, and could find his game time limited if Dendoncker signs.
However, Obiang could still have a part to play for West Ham in the remainder of the campaign, with the Spaniard capable of providing balance in midfield, while he can make important interceptions.
West Ham, who are in the midst of an injury crisis, need to ensure that they have sufficient squad depth to cope with the challenges that they will face over the next few months, and Obiang could still be a useful player for Moyes’ side as they aim to stay up.
