According to TA, West Ham offered a total price of £30 million for Southampton midfielder Mattus Fernandez, but was rejected by Southampton.
media pointed out that West Ham is interested in Mattus Fernandez and has submitted a quotation of £30 million (including additional terms) to Southampton, but the offer is much lower than Southampton's valuation of the player, so it was rejected, and Southampton did not give a price.
Mattus Fernandez's contract expires in 2029, and Southampton's valuation of him is comparable to that of Lavia, who joined Chelsea for a transfer fee of £58 million in the summer of 2023. The negotiations will continue only if West Ham or other clubs are willing to make an offer close to this amount.
Mattus Fernandez is 21 years old and played 44 games for Southampton last season, scoring 3 goals and assisting 6 times.
