Flamengo’s Latest Move for Paqueta
Flamengo have tabled a fresh offer exceeding €41m (£35.5m) for West Ham midfielder Lucas Paqueta. The proposal, delivered verbally, comes as negotiations drag on ahead of next week’s transfer deadline.
Paqueta, 28, is eager to seal a return to his native Brazil this month. West Ham have signaled willingness to sanction the move—but only if the Brazil international remains on loan at the London Stadium for the rest of the season.
West Ham’s Resurgence Without Paqueta
The Hammers have strung together three consecutive victories for the first time since 2023, achieving this run without Paqueta, who has been sidelined in recent weeks. Despite this upturn in form, the club still sit 18th in the Premier League, firmly in the relegation zone.
Talks between the clubs are ongoing, with the clock ticking toward the transfer window’s close.
