Argentina ace set to sign
West Ham United, 14:42, June 15, 2010 ,
West Ham are closing in on a deal to sign Juan Roman Riquelme from Boca Juniors on a two-year deal.
The Argentina star is set to leave the club where he is idolised in favour of a move to England and the Hammers are hot favourites to do a deal according to agent Barry McIntosh.
A number of other clubs in the Premiership are known to be keen including Aston Villa but McIntosh believes the chance to move to London with West Ham will win the day.
McIntosh believes only late interest from Tottenham or Arsenal could scupper the deal and Riquelme looks set to join the Hammers in the coming days.
