Viola secure swap deal

31 August 2009 17:35
Fiorentina have announced that Manuel da Costa has joined West Ham United with forward Savio Nsereko heading in the opposite direction. Skysports.com revealed on Sunday that a deal involving the duo was in the offing before the close of the transfer window. And now the Serie A club have confirmed a swap agreement has been reached between the two sides. Savio, 20, has struggled to make an impact in England since joining the Hammers from Brescia for £9million in January. The addition of 23-year-old Da Costa, meanwhile, at Upton Park will serve as valuable defensive depth for the campaign ahead.
