The West Ham trials were a big plus for David Obua on Friday with our pre season training schedule.

Kaizer Chiefs Defender/Midfielder arrived from Africa on Thursday on what most people thought was a trip to Hearts to join his old coach Laszlo Csaba, but it turned out he had an invitation to trials with the West Ham boys.

An unamed source from the West Ham camp said that Obua did well and was quite impressive.

Obua can play defence or midfield and had been linked to  Croatia’s Dinamo Zagreb, Italian Serie B side Brescia, Orlando Pirates, and other sides from Sweden, Austria, Denmark, Italy, Tunisia and Egypt.

Obua said to the Media:

“As a professional, I have to weigh my options and make a decision. I have many offers, but I’m not about to rush,”

Obua said

“One thing is for sure, I’m not returning to South Africa. I have nothing to prove in South Africa because I believe I’ve won everything as an individual. I need a new challenge that will only be realised in Europe.”

Josip Tadic, a young guy who wanted to follow in the footsteps of his hero’s Slaven Billic and Igor Stimac, whom both had played for West Ham. was told by the Dinamo Zagreb Sports Director that he isnt going anywhere.

Tadic admitted :

“It is true it would be an honour for me to move to such a great club,But everything I heard about my transfer to West Ham, I read it in the newspapers.”

Tadic also said:

“Nobody spoke to me about this.”

We all know now that West ham are looking for new blood and it would be great to sign a player like Josip, maybe, one day.
