Sparta prague Close to Signing West Ham’s Andrew irving
Sparta Prague is reportedly on the verge of bolstering its midfield with the addition of Andrew Irving, a 25-year-old Scottish midfielder from West Ham United.The potential transfer comes as irving’s contract with the Premier League club is set to expire this summer.
Addressing Sparta’s Midfield Needs
Sparta has been actively seeking midfield reinforcements. Recent signings, such as Sivert Mannsverk from Ajax, haven’t yet met expectations, while injuries to Magnus Andersen and santiago Eneme, coupled with Lukáš Sadílek’s departure to Poland, have created a void in the squad. Irving’s arrival would address these needs, providing head coach Brian Priske with additional options in the center of the pitch.
