The transfer poker around midfield talent Amadou Onana is entering the next round after reports of an imminent conclusion. According to data from Guardian reporter Jacob Steinberg LOSC Lille, where the 20-year-old is under contract until 2026, and West Ham United agreed on a transfer fee on Thursday. Only the conditions between the player side and the Premier League club have to be clarified, it is said. However, Everton FC intervened at the last second to hijack a deal, such as the “Times‘ reported on Friday. Ex-club Hamburger SV meanwhile waving millions of dollars in income.

“Sky Sports” also reported an agreement between Lille and West Ham. A total of up to 40 million euros should flow, divided into 35 million euros in transfers plus 5 million euros in bonuses. The Ligue 1 club accepted the fourth offer. The TV station is also saying that the deal is by no means fixed because the personal conditions have to be settled first. The “Times” report shows that this could be difficult, since Onana would rather go to Everton than to West Ham. Accordingly, the “Toffees” also submitted an offer for 40 million euros, but as a fixed amount. Everton are said to be confident in signing Onana. Meanwhile, a transfer of the defender would not change the fact that Idrissa Gueye (32) should also come from PSG, it is said.

If the Onana change goes through, the financially strapped second division club HSV will benefit, which in addition to the open stadium renovation also has to resolve some question marks in the 2022/23 squad. The North Germans had sold Onana to Lille in 2021 for 7 million euros and in the course of this secured a resale participation, which would now create scope for further newcomers demanded by coach Tim Walter.
According to several media reports, the club will receive 20 percent of the amount that exceeds the transfer fee paid to HSV. With an amount of 40 million euros, one would therefore take 6.6 million euros. All in all, Onana would have brought Hamburg 13.6 million euros in this optimal case – only three departures in the history of the club have been more expensive. “L’Equipe” assumes a resale participation of 15 to 20 percent.

LOSC Lille also have to let Sanches go – Onana has planned her career
According to “Sky Sports”, LOSC does not actually want to sell Onana at all, but is aware that this lucrative offer from England means that it has to give in. Onana’s midfield colleague Renato Sanches (24) will also leave Lille, the ex-Bayern professional is about to sign with PSG and should cost 15 million euros.

“I have planned my professional career from A to Z. Of course, not every consideration always works out right away, but on the whole our plans have worked out very well. My sister and I gave everything that I could have this career. And now I have it,” Onana explained to the Hamburger Abendblatt in August 2021. The professional is looked after by his sister Melissa, who works as an agent.
