8 Players Who Turned Down Big Moves To Join West Ham

6. Alessandro Diamanti

Alessandro Diamanti summed up the exact type of player that West Ham fans love. His passion and flair stood out at Livorno, making Diamanti one of Zola's main transfer targets in 2009. Despite a number of top clubs interest, Diamanti evidently saw the potential in a move to Upton Park too, begging Livorno to let him join us. It's just a shame it didn't work out long term.
