West Ham got a new rich owner. Remember?
I think west ham will be fun to watch this season, esepcially with these two signings

[Suprah]

i just read something mighty interesting on the internet, the company that operates corinthians (the club who have tevez and mascherano) tried to buy west ham last year

further it is rumoured that two russian billionaires - roman abrahamovic and boriz beresvozky have interests in the company (Media Sports Investment, which basically is an investment fund)

now the rumours floating around are that tevez and mascherano will play on loan for west ham (a london club which can afford their wages, and with links to the owners of corinthians) for a year, and then join chelsea next season

[khabalood]

yes of course, because as we all know chelsea is in serious need of more highly telented players.

Last year Kia Joorabchian (from MSI) wanted to buy West Ham United, maybe this has to do anything with this deal?

Why West Ham ??

West Ham United have completed the signings of Argentina duo Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano from Corinthians for undisclosed fees.

The pair have both agreed permanent switches to Upton Park after the club agreed a fee with the company that own the players' transfer rights, Media Sports Investments.

The Hammers have beaten off a number of the world's top clubs to bring the pair to England, including Premiership trio Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea.

Striker Tevez and midfielder Mascherano both starred for their country at this summer's World Cup and were tipped for big-money moves to one of Europe's top sides.

However, Upton Park will now be their new destination after both players signed permanent deals on Thursday.

Tevez is labelled as Argentina's new Diego Maradona, while Mascherano is tipped to be a star on the world stage.

At 22, both players are not yet at their peak, with their best years ahead of them, and Hammers fans will be licking their lips at the prospect of the pair plying their trade under Alan Pardew.

Both players are currently involved with the national team's preparations for the friendly against Brazil at The Emirates Stadium and will now return to the Argentina camp.

Tevez and Mascherano will both be available for selection for West Ham's next game against Aston Villa next week, where increased attention will almost certainly now be focused.

It does Farhad jaan. I read in a Swedish paper that MSI signed a deal with the Hammers. This deal could be finished due to this deal because MSI owns these players.

[ird28]

of course.

the clubs have the same owner.


havent chelsea already sent players to cska moscow?

[Milad-69]

yea they did but i thought he would start his financial shit in like 3 months

[Lazio]

Read BBC's report, Kia Joorabchian the Iranian owner of MSI owns Corinthians. He was behind it 100% as the company wanted to buy West Ham last year. By the looks of it, they eventually will. The fee is undisclosed too.

Chelsea watch out for competition!

I saw now that Abramovich owns 15 percent of MSI as well .
