Hammers looking for Flamengo double swoop
And according to 90 Minutes the club sent scouts to watch both in the World Club Final against Liverpool last night with the merseysiders running out 1-0 winners.
The pair could cost a combined total of approaching £25 million should the club move decide to move in during the January window.
According to www.transfermarkt.com he is valued at close to £6 million although quite what’s in the manager’s thinking is difficult to work out.
In Felipe Anderson he has his natural left wing choice and were he to continue playing him behind a front one or two then Nathan Holland is available off the bench to work the wing role.
West Ham believe Henrique will be able to make an immediate impact on their first-team.
However, the news – regardless of early indications from club insiders suggesting there there would be little action in the window – it seems the club is looking to spend in January.
This of course following the slump over recent games which has seen them looking at goalkeepers, midfielders and strikers although a right back is also clearly required with Fredericks looking uncertain and Zaba now at the end of his PL career.
A second left back might also be a good idea!
