West Ham United are encountering strong competition for Corinthians winger Wesley this summer, with Atletico Madrid also in the race to secure the Brazilian’s services.

Despite the managerial uncertainty at West Ham, Director of Football Tim Steidten is reportedly keen on advancing the transfer, aware of Atletico’s interest.

Dubbed the ‘Brazilian Mbappe,’ Wesley has quickly risen to prominence at Corinthians, establishing himself as a key player in the first team. To date, he has appeared in 58 matches for Corinthians, scoring six goals and providing three assists across various competitions.

His current contract with Corinthians extends until the end of 2027, which may complicate West Ham’s chances of securing him for a bargain in the upcoming summer transfer window.

Wesley has shown potential that suggests he could become a world-class winger. His acquisition would be a significant asset for West Ham in the long term, and he already possesses the talent to compete for a regular starting position at the London Stadium in future seasons.
