The information revealed yesterday evening by the Brazilian press caused a stir. Flamengo contacted West Ham to try to repatriate Lucas Paqueta. In the sights of the English federation (FA) which accuses him of match-fixing, the midfielder puts the Hammers in an embarrassing situation since he risks a very heavy sanction.
Mengão has therefore offered the British club to get rid of Paqueta. Except that the Carioca team will have to pay a big cheque. Globe Sports And The Athletic affirm in unison that West Ham is not closed to the idea of getting rid of the Brazilian, but the club refuses to discuss a loan. The Hammers have paid around €60 million in 2022 and they expect to recoup their investment. Flamengo has been warned, but at this price, it is not certain that the club trained by Tite has the capacity to close the deal.
