da cassino online: West Brom and West Ham are battling to secure the signing of 32-year-old Fiorentina midfielder Carlos Sanchez, according to Alfredo Pedulla, but the Baggies would be making a huge mistake in signing the former Villa man.
What’s the story?
da 888casino: West Brom currently only have 37-year-old Gareth Barry and 32-year-old James Morrison as options to partner Jake Livermore in midfield, and boss Darren Moore was forced to start left-midfielder Chris Brunt in the middle of the park in the Baggies opening day loss at home to Bolton on Saturday.
Sanchez is valued at just £1.35m by Transfermarkt and has plenty of experience, with 88 international caps for Colombia to his name and spells in the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A.
The journeyman signed for Aston Villa in the summer of 2014 and played for two seasons at Villa Park, managing 56 games before joining Fiorentina on loan and eventually on a permanent deal.

A huge mistake
Despite the relatively cheap valuation though, signing Sanchez would be a huge mistake for the Baggies and Moore should avoid any potential deal. During his time at Villa, Sanchez was regularly caught in possession or gave the ball away.
Now 32 years of age, he hardly had the best World Cup after being sent off three minutes in to Colombia’s first group game against Japan.
In Livermore, The Baggies already have a similar player and need a more dynamic midfielder than Sanchez to add legs in the centre of the park and to drive the West Midlands side back to the Premier League.
