BREAKING NEWS: ‘One of those players’ – Brighton attacker wanted by West Ham as £35m transfer claim made

West Ham United are reportedly preparing a £34 million bid for Brighton & Hove Albion’s talented midfielder Julio Enciso, according to **Fichajes**. Enciso, who joined Brighton from Club Libertad in 2022 for around £8 million, has shown moments of brilliance, including his stunning long-range goal against Manchester City in May 2023. However, after a serious knee injury in August 2023, he has struggled for game time under new head coach Fabian Hurzeler.

Despite Brighton’s significant summer spending of £200 million, Enciso remains a key player for the future, though he has yet to start a Premier League game this season. West Ham’s interest comes amid pressure on their manager Julen Lopetegui, who is looking to strengthen his squad after an inconsistent start to the season. A bid of £34 million would represent a substantial profit for Brighton, but it remains to be seen if they will accept the offer for the 20-year-old Paraguayan international.

Enciso has made 46 appearances for Brighton, scoring four goals and providing six assists, and remains highly regarded within the club. West Ham, who spent £132 million in the summer, including signings like Crysencio Summerville and Niclas Fullkrug, could benefit from his creativity to boost their attacking options.
