It is believed Diamanti has held talks with Brescia after the two clubs agreed a fee.
Speaking earlier in the week Diamanti admitted that he is open to the move. “Me to Brescia? I cannot say anything,” he told bresciaoggi.it.
“I didn’t play against Bolton because I am injured a little bit. Now, I am a West Ham player.
“Going back to Italy? I have many possibilities. Brescia wouldn’t be an unwelcome solution.”
