Anderson at Heathrow PIC

Here’s what’s claimed to be the first picture of Felipe Anderson arriving at Heathrow tonight ahead of what now appears to be a certain switch from Lazio to  West Ham United.

It has been produced by the  @WestHamSocial twitter account.

We understand that the deal has now been all but nailed down and is likely to be announced on Monday after the last formalities have been sorted out.

With a work permit in place Anderson is all set to arrive for a €50  million plus  fee once agents fees have been taken into account.

In the meantime a smiling Anderson looks to be more than happy with the way developments are unfolding after CandH was told earlier that he and his representative is kicking doors down to join the Hammers.

He will bring the number of new signings to six but with Paraguay defender Fabian Balbuena but that isn’t likely to be the end of the incoming players.

We were told that there was more activity on the go as manager Manuel Pellegrini assembles a squad capable of pushing for the Europa League.
