Academica striker Eder has revealed that his proposed move to Championship promotion hopefuls West Ham United has broken down. The forward, who has also been the subject of interest from Porto and Everton, said that a meeting between him and the Hammers had been conducted, but they could not reach upon an agreement as talks failed to materialise.
Undeterred by their failure to swoop for Eder, West Ham have now turned their attention to Brazilian Ze Eduardo, who plays for Serie A outfit Genoa CFC. The Hammers want a loan move, much like they did with Eder, and hope to have the move wrapped up before the conclusion of the transfer window on Tuesday night.
