Football journalist Dean Jones has been speaking to Give Me Sport about the Hammers’ proposed move to sign Bruno this summer.It has emerged that the Flamengo defender has already made his intentions very clear indeed.Jones said, “Initial focus is on the Brazilians that have been talked about, and in terms of Fabricio Bruno, I think there is an important profile of player that symbolises the mentality that will be needed for this era.”
“He’s a pretty strong-headed player, very committed, and also good at building play out of the back or seeing opportunities to force an attack,” Jones explained.And finally, the transfer news specialist said, “I’m told he is excited about the prospect of making a mark in the Premier League (with West Ham). Lopetegui will need to start the season well to get the fans on board and that’s why I’m expecting them to do transfer business like this as early as possible.”I think Bruno could be a decent signing for us for just under £13 million.He’s not the easiest on the eye but he’s a quintessentially dogged South American defender – something that our current team really lacks.If Julen Lopetegui signs Bruno for West Ham, I’ll fully support the decision and get behind the Brazilian centre-back.
