Porto have made a surprise move to sign a player from West Ham on transfer deadline day.
West Ham have been fairly quiet on the whole in the January transfer window.
However, we have completed a couple of deals on deadline day.
Evan Ferguson has joined us on a season-long loan from Brighton, whilst James Ward-Prowse has returned to the London Stadium from Nottingham Forest, after a failed loan stint at the City Ground.
There is still more time for Hammers head coach Graham Potter to get one or two more deals done, although his focus will surely now be solely on the Chelsea game.
If there is any more transfer activity at the London Stadium on deadline day, I suspect it will involve one or two players leaving the club.
And one player in particular could well be set to leave West Ham after a very short stint with the club.

The are definitely could be one or two late outgoings on deadline day at the London Stadium.
One player in particular is drawing attention from one of Europe’s biggest clubs.
Luis Guilherme is said to be on Porto’s radar on transfer deadline day, according to a report from O Jogo.
After signing for the Hammers for £25 million in the summer, the 18-year-old has barely featured for us, and has been heavily linked with an exit this month.
I believe that the Brazilian is not at the standard required to play Premier League football.
The signing was a bizarre one from the very first moment he joined us.
However, one thing I will say is that Guilherme is in Potter’s squad for the clash with Chelsea tonight.
So I doubt that there will be enough time to get a deal done.
Deadline day may well end with a flourish for West Ham, but I just can’t see Guilherme leaving this late on in the window.
