New club are favourites for Anderson loan

Hammer Felipe Anderson is now on Fiorentina’s radar according Gianluca Di Marzio

In recent weeks the winger has been linked with a possible loan to Everton,  AC Milan and UAE side Al Ain.

Gazzetta dello Sport is running a story that Fiorentina are favourites to land the 27-year-old and showing interest and are set to make a loan bid.

Anderson is currently on loan at Porto from West Hamn but has had little game time under coach Sergio Conceicao and is set to be sent back to London so long as the Irons can find a loan club or permanent club for him.

FIFA and UEFA will relax their transfer regulations. Current rules dictate you can’t play for more than two clubs in one season, which Anderson has done having played briefly for the Hammers before moving to Portugal but this has now been increased to three in one season due to the pandemic.

Anderson has made just three appearances in all competitions for the Portuguese champions.

West Ham signed Anderson from Lazio for £34m in the summer of 2019. He scored 10 goals in all competitions as Manuel Pellegrini led the club to 10th place in the Premier League.
