Lucas Paqueta has been filmed back in training ahead of West Ham United’s clashes with Gent and Arsenal over the next five days.
West Ham face Gent in the Europa Conference League on Thursday night and Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, and having Lucas Paqueta available for both games would be a truly massive boost for us.

The Hammers earned a huge three points on Saturday against Fulham, and that will set the players up perfectly heading into their next two games.
Paqueta missed the match against Fulham through injury. It was a big blow at the time because the Brazilian had just started to find some form.
It seems as though we might just have the Brazilian back and available for selection for our upcoming games though…
Lucas Paqueta back in training for West Ham ahead of Gent and Arsenal clashes
The Brazilian was back in and amongst it at Rush Green yesterday, as David Moyes and his staff put the players through the motions.
The club posted the below video on the Hammers official Twitter account yesterday evening:
Paqueta featured twice in the video. It’s great to see him back in training although it does look like he’s very lightly taking part.
That’s fine, West Ham still have another 36 hours before we face Gent and then three days after that before we welcome Arsenal to the London Stadium.
The next two games will define the Hammers’ season. Two wins against Gent and Arsenal respectively would set us us perfectly for the remainder of the campaign.
Having Paqueta back and available for those matches will undoubtedly help us get the results that we need. The Brazilian is an outstanding talent, and hopefully we see him flourish between now and the end of the season.
