He finally found club to his glove. After three successive loans to Real Madrid, Fulham and therefore West Ham, the goalkeeper trained at the club will stay with Hammers. Alphonse Areola is transferred there definitively, the club of the capital reached an agreement with his counterpart of the West of London, information confirmed to France Blue Paris.
A transfer that will bring in a little more than 9 million euros at PSG. He is the second goalkeeper transferred this summer by the club, after the departure, again after a loan, of Marcin Bulka at OGC Nice.
Areola, a departure to close a contrasting passage
It is an understatement to say that Alphonse Areola, crowned world champion with the Blues in 2018 without playing, will not have managed to win at PSG. Loaned in all six times, the slender goalkeeper has missed a great opportunity to become number 1 when he was installed by Unaï Emery.
The arrival of Thomas Tuchel and Gianluigi Buffon also changes the situation. It is finally in the loan that he finds happiness, and more particularly in London, Fulham and finally West Ham, where he actively participates in the very beautiful European epic of the Hammers, semi-finalists of the Europa Leagueand defeated by the eventual winner, Eintracht Frankfurt.
