West Ham United could make a bid for Liverpool transfer target and Leeds United winger Raphinha in the January transfer window, according to 90min.
90min are reporting his evening that West Ham could make an offer for Leeds winger Raphinha before the January transfer window closes next week.
Paris Saint-Germain are also reportedly interested in the £17 million Brazil international winger (90min), but they are planning a move in the summer of 2022.
Interestingly, Liverpool have been linked with the 25-year-old as well.
The Daily Star reported earlier this month that Liverpool and Chelsea are interested in signing Raphinha from Premier League rivals Leeds in the summer of 2022.
West Ham unlikely to succeed in Raphinha pursuit
In our view, it is very unlikely that West Ham will be successful in their quest to sign Raphinha from Leeds in the January transfer window.
Leeds are in danger of getting relegated to the Championship at the end of the season, and are unlikely to sell arguably their best player.
Moreover, Raphinha will know that if he waits until the summer of 2022, then he will have clubs bigger than West Ham coming for him.
Like Liverpool, Chelsea and PSG.
