Word is that if the Kia Joorabchian West Ham takeover goes through, he'll be bringing Corinthian's attacking midfielder Carlos Alberto with him. Like Tevez and Mascherano, Carlos Alberto is owned by Media Sport Investment (MSI), who Joorabchian used to be involved with (he claims he isn't now).

21 year old Carlos Alberto would be up for the transfer as he's fallen out with Corinthians coach Emerson Leao.

No doubt Carlos Alberto has got the skills, but surely the last thing West Ham need is another south American taking time to adapt, especially one who likes to argue with managers.
