It's almost as if you're saying he'd have been better off learning his trade while getting acclimatised in England, away from the 'spotlight'.
Thus allowing him to make the step up to Premier League football in a more controlled manner.

Still at least his agent has earned a decent wedge, after all that's the main thing.

Agreed, he should've signed for us last January and then he'd be leading a front line in the premiership gaining regular appearances by now

What i don't get is that if the rumours were correct,we were willing to pay zillions to everybody for this chap.....and hes not even good enough for West Ham,i mean they are not far above us.....Our recruitment teams record would have taken one hell of a beating,if it had been us.

Calleri on the move with NO mention of BHA!

Jonathan Calleri is likely to leave West Ham United this month in search of first‑team football, with Fiorentina, Sampdoria and the Spanish side Las Palmas among the clubs interested in signing him.

The 23-year-old striker, who played for Argentina in the 2016 Olympic Games, moved to West Ham on a season-long loan from the Uruguayan club Deportivo Maldonado last summer with an option to make the deal permanent.

However, despite topping the 2015 Copa Libertadores scoring charts with the Brazilian side São Paulo, Calleri has played for just 129 minutes in the Premier League having made six substitute appearances and has not even been selected as a substitute since the end of October.

With West Ham hoping to add the Brentford striker Scott Hogan to their ranks in the January transfer window having seen three bids already rejected, Calleri has been told he can leave if he can find a new club.

According to a source close to the player, that has led the Serie A sides Fiorentina and Sampdoria to make enquiries about taking him on loan until the end of the season with a view to a £4m permanent transfer, with the La Liga sides CD Leganés and Las Palmas also interested. The Turkish champions Galatasaray, São Paulo and Grêmio could also make a bid to lure the player who was rated as one of Argentina’s most promising strikers.

It is understood that Calleri is happy at West Ham and has no issue with the manager, Slaven Bilic, but is desperate to feature in more matches having only been used sparingly by the club’s under-23 side in recent weeks. Any move, however, could be subject to Fifa clearance given that he has already been subject to two loans in the past 12 months.

"According to a source close to the player" - this couldn't possibly be agent-speak, could it, trying to get a deal for his apparently rapidly devaluing commodity?

At only £4million now he has got to be worth a try

The poor ad battled so close to get to England hoping that he would be deemed not up for the prem and moved on to a second tier side. He now looks like he will have to rot in Serie A

It would be good for him to have a 2nd spell with us.

Even without hindsight it would have been good for him to have a 1st spell at a rock solid club, under the tutelage of one of the most astute managers, in the Championship away from the bright lights of the Premier League.

But I guess short term gains are so much better than developing a career.
