West Ham United have been quite busy this summer, as the Premier League club have signed former Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere and Ryan Fredericks on free transfers, central defender Issa Diop from Toulouse, and goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski from Swansea City so far.

Another player West Ham reportedly want to bring to the London Stadium in the summer transfer window is Felipe Anderson.

Positive talks

According to Sky Sports, the Hammers are interested in signing Anderson from Italian club Lazio this summer, and there has reportedly been some progress in that potential transfer.

According to Gianlucadimarzio.com, West Ham and Lazio were in negotiations over the 25-year-old attacking midfielder on Monday, and the two clubs are working towards reaching an agreement of an initial fee of €31 million (£27.44m) plus €5m (£4.43m) in bonuses depending on appearances.

Good signing for West Ham United

It seems that there is an inclination between the two clubs to get a deal done, although Sky Sports have claimed that Anderson’s wage demand could yet scupper the transfer..

Anderson is a brilliant and very creative midfielder, and the 25-year-old Brazil international would be a good signing for West Ham.
