Anderson rumours persist
The transfer man made the claim on his personal Twitter profile on Sunday evening [04/07/21].
He wrote: “Lazio are progressing in negotiations to sign Felipe Anderson from West Ham. Talks are ongoing between the two clubs, personal terms are already agreed.”
Another report by TMW claimed the return of Brazilian Felipe Anderson to Lazio is now very close. The player can join on a free transfer with a 50% sell on fee.
Just seven days ago Claret and Hugh were told by a club insider that no inquiries had been received from anywhere for the Brazilian who failed to impress at West Ham and on loan at Porto.
A senior source inside the London Stadium made it clear to CandH that there is no truth in the Lazio story at all when the story first broke.
The club have resigned themselves that they remain stuck with a player who has another year on his contract and may even be heading into a mutual pay off.
We know things can change quickly in the world of transfers but we still give this tale a big health warning until we hear otherwise.
