The French world cup winner was on the cusp of joining Liverpool last summer, only to fail a medical. Now Betis are close to confirming his signature for \u00a327 million, \u00a330 million less than what <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/liverpool\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Liverpool<\/a> were willing to pay.<\/p>\n<p>Many are already tipping F\u00e9kir to be Betis&#8217; replacement for <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/d7553721\/Giovani-Lo-Celso?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Giovani Lo Celso<\/a>, whom <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/tottenham\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tottenham<\/a> are pursuing. This comes after earlier news that Lyon were looking to tie him down to a new contract. However, despite not even offering European football, the Spanish side look set to come up with the funds.<\/p>\n<h3>Another West Ham Striker Target<\/h3>\n<p>Another target of Betis could be set to move to England, though.

Betis are reportedly unwilling to meet his \u20ac28 million release clause.<\/p>\n<p>This news is of interest to the Hammers, whose other target, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4c2e9442\/Maxi-Gomez\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Maxi G\u00f3mez<\/a>, is set to join Valencia. With last season&#8217;s top-scorer <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/00459419\/Marko-Arnautovic?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Marko Arnautovi\u0107<\/a> gone to China, a new striker is their number one priority.<\/p>\n<h3>Icardi Out of Training Camp<\/h3>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/football\/48977020\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BBC<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/43b78598\/Mauro-Icardi\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mauro Icardi<\/a> has left Inter Milan&#8217;s pre-season training camp. New boss Antonio Conte is adamant he wants to sell the Argentinian striker. He scored 18 goals last season for <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/tag\/inter-milan\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Inter<\/a>, but still endured a controversial season. He started as captain for the Italian giants. Though, after comments from his wife, Wanda Nara, Inter replaced him with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/74419746\/Samir-Handanovic?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Samir Handanovi\u0107<\/a>. He then refused to play, and only scored 2 goals after having his captaincy removed.<\/p>\n<p>This news should have <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/manchester-united\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester United<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/serie-a\/juventus\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Juventus<\/a> interested.

Juventus, with new boss Maurizio Sarri at the helm, are eyeing the striker, and could move for him soon.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"HJEqFAfMQHZcGPKTcmb6MQ\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/863133962\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'HJEqFAfMQHZcGPKTcmb6MQ',sig:'mbu9EQZKzvUsnDm0ZoOSXNvt9If_100IO6yufCc55xw=',w:'594px',h:'371px',items:'863133962',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Word on Football&#8217;s Football Transfer News brings you the latest transfer rumours from around world football.
