Vaz Te Interest

Ricardo Vaz Te was a player who could do no wrong at West Ham, he had the opportunity to earn 'Legendary' cult status after scoring the winning goal in the Play-Off Final against Blackpool. When Vaz Te was signed from Barnsley for half a million , nobody could have predicted the impact he would go on to make; he went on to score 12 goals for West Ham from January up until the end of the season, 24 goals in total that season.
A very impressive goal-scoring record for a player who looked on the brink of losing it all, and after failed moves to Hull, Hibernian and Greek side Panionios, Ricardo managed to re-invent himself!

After West Ham secured their way back to the Premiership, Ricardo stated that he would leave should the right offer come along, especially if it was from his home land of Portugal. Upon hearing the news, West Ham were naturally disappointed but were understanding.

But after some underwhelming performances from Ricardo in the Premier League last year, it now appears that Ricardo could be on his way out of East London, with Championship side Nottingham Forest hoping to secure a deal. Vaz Te has showcased his talents at Championship level and would be a great buy for any lower league club, thats not to say he's never going to be a Premier League footballer again-after-all the dislocated Shoulder he sustained early on in the season; hurt his first team chances.

If the Hammers hope to sign a couple of more players, they will need to trim the wage bill down, in order to meet the 'Financial Fair Play Regulations' so Ricardo could be one on many to leave.

With the arrival of Stewart Downing, does that spell the end of Vaz Te's time with West Ham?

Here's the link to the interview I mentioned last year:
