West Ham offer for Arsenal striker confirmed
The 29-year-old was part of the squad that played two matches in Singapore but has been left out of the most recent friendlies against Chelsea and Lazio.
“I know that West Ham want him and they have made an offer,” Lucas’s agent Rodrigo Fernandez Lovelle told ESPN FC.
“It is an option. Lucas is happy at Arsenal but he wants to play regularly and West Ham is an option for him.
“There are other clubs interested but joining West Ham would allow him to continue in London and in the Premier League and Lucas wants to continue in London.
“In Spain there are also interest from some clubs, but they are not willing to assume the transfer.”
Having signed from Deportivo La Coruna just two years ago for £17.5 million, it looks as though we’re willing to take a big hit on the financial front with a fee of £4- £5m being reported.
