PSG midfielder Carlos Soler, who has been heavily linked with a move to West Ham before the end of the transfer window, should have no problems passing his medical in East London if a deal is to be finalised according to injury expert Dr Rajpal Brar.

Dr Brar has claimed that whilst the 27 year old may not have got as many minutes under his belt in recent times as he would have liked, there should not be any potential issues that come up in his medical checks if of course the Hammers get a deal over the line with PSG.

Based off of what has been reported, it certainly looks like West Ham are leading the race to secure the Spanish international’s signature, with the clubs technical director Tim Steidten working hard behind the scenes to get the deal done according to Fabrizio Romano.

Speaking with fellow West Ham news site West Ham Zone, Dr Brar who is a sports scientist specialising in physical therapy said: “Generally, for someone who’s not played in the Premier League before, I would look at the players level of physicality, style of play, and adapting to a new environment. It’s really important to understand all factors that may impact a player’s adaptation to the league, including mental and physical.”

The injury expert went on to add: “He’s obviously got a great fitness record last season and that no doubt is an indicator of how seriously he takes his lifestyle outside the training pitch as well. Last season, while game time was erratic, he should have no issues clearing his medical.”

As a player, Soler is seen as a versatile midfielder, as well as playing in the middle he is capable of doing a job in a more advanced position as well as as a wide midfielder. Technically he is strong, his good tactical awareness means he is able to create as well as score goals.

For this West Ham side under new head coach Julen Lopetegui, Soler can certainly add some more creativity, improve the sides ability whilst in possession of the ball by linking the midfield to the forward line, which overall would allow Lopetegui’s side to be a lot more fluid in possession.
