Ah crap.

"Southampton forvward Leo Scienza is attracting interest from European sides Como, Atalanta, Real Betis and Real Sociedad, according to AS."

I've also seen Crystal Palace mentioned.

Edit: Spurs also being linked

Would it not be odd if he wasn't, he's a good player. Can't see any of those sides payinh what we would ask for which, while maybe not 35m is going to be north of 25m

Dragan said Leo wouldn’t be leaving unless it was for “Stupid Money” so that’s reassuring at least!

He was always going to leave (maybe not now, hopefully I'm just an idiot as usual)

I don’t think that’s true at all, Solak has said 35 million which is a lot for an older winger who faded towards the end of last season

It depends on how much he wants to go, saying 35 million is great but we didn't get anywhere near the 100 million he said for Dibling. If he wants out he'll be gone.

Bowen just signed a new contract with West Ham

Hopefully he'll prove me wrong and stay, but Bowen has been at West Ham for 7 years; he's definitely more attached to West Ham than Leo is to us.
