Edson Álvarez is open to leaving West Ham this summer and has attracted multiple European offers. Inter Milan have submitted a formal bid, viewing his profile as a tactical fit. Fenerbahçe have progressed with a loan proposal that includes a loan fee and full salary coverage, with talks ongoing over a purchase clause and the player's final approval. Borussia Dortmund and Porto are showing strong interest and could make offers. Ajax briefly pursued a return but withdrew for financial reasons. Alvarez has underperformed at West Ham and fallen out of favour under manager Graham Potter, making an exit likely soon.
CaughtOffside understands that Inter Milan have submitted a formal bid for Alvarez. The Italian giants are keen admirers of the 27-year-old, with the club's technical staff rating his profile as a perfect fit for their tactical system. However, Fenerbahce are widely felt to have made the most progress on a deal for Alvarez, with the Turkish giants communicating to West Ham that they'll pay a loan fee for him and cover his entire salary.
It remains to be seen how imminent a final decision from Alvarez is now that Inter have joined Fenerbahce in the race, while other clubs could also get involved. Well-placed sources have told CaughtOffside that Borussia Dortmund and Porto are also showing a strong interest in Alvarez and could soon come in with formal offers as well. Ajax made an attempt to re-sign their former player earlier in the summer, but quickly pulled out of the race.
