Italian and Spanish reports say that the Felipe Anderson deal is almost done again adding it is only a matter of time before he is announced as a Hammer.

Gazzetta.IT says “West Ham and Lazio have finally reached an agreement for Brazilian playmaker Felipe Anderson. The Hammers have agreed to pay €40m for him including a future sell-on percentage worth 20%”
Spanish newspaper Marca says “It  is believed to be just a matter of time before West Ham announces the signature of Lazio winger Felipe Anderson for €40M”

However, another report says a final problem with Anderson now lies almost completely in the sell-on percentage. Originally West Ham wanted 10% and Lazio wanted 20%, now West Ham have improved their offer to 15%, however, Lazio have increased their demands to 25%.

In yet another report by La Repubblica in Italy they add “West Ham have agreed a fee for Felipe Anderson, but now also want to add Jordan Lukaku to the deal as well. Lazio want €60m for the pair, however the Hammers have accordingly offered closer to €50m”.

In a competing report in France West Ham are said to have met the €40m (£36m) release clause of Nice star Jean Michael Seri, and talks are ongoing to finalise the deal. West Ham have offered the Ivorian midfielder a 5 year contract.

The Hammers are being tight-lipped about the real state of negotiations regarding Anderson and Seri but it would be unlikely that both will be signed.
