As already reported on talk sport, the hammer Paqueta appreciates over 60 million GBP.

Owner David Sullivan also knows that he is exposed to fans in front of a counter reaction if they would sell the Brazilian favorites.

Paqueta can be selected for today’s trip to Nottingham Forest, although manager Graham Potter will make the last call.

The 28-year-old scored two goals in three appearances this season, although both achieved defeats against Chelsea and wolves.

Talksport previously also reported interest in Paqueta from West Hams London rivals Tottenham.

However, Spurs recently confirmed the signing of Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig.

Paqueta positive for fighting hammers

West Ham’s ability to keep Paqueta beyond summer will be an urgently needed thrust in the middle of her terrible start.

The outfit in East London is profitable in all three games in the Premier League and the Carabao Cup.

They opened their campaign with a dark 3-0 defeat against the newly widespread Sunderland.
