Fabrizio Romano reports that Real Sociedad have reached a verbal agreement with West Ham United for Moroccan defender Nayef Aguerd. The deal is structured as an initial loan costing €4m, with a subsequent buy‑option clause of €11m. The fee has not been disclosed beyond these figures.
The move is being tracked by three outlets, all noting that Aguerd expressed a preference for the Spanish club. The Onside model values the defender at €15m and, given the lack of a confirmed fee, the model currently has no fee‑vs‑value comparison to make.
