UOL claims that Felipe Anderson expects to be sold by West Ham United in the summer.

The Hammers trying to sell the Brazilian really shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone in all fairness.
The 28-year-old has been in truly awful form for the past 18 months.
That combined with the fact that David Moyes needs to sell players in order to supplement his summer transfer budget means that Anderson leaving the London Stadium is almost nailed on.
Felipe Anderson set for West Ham exit?
UOL claims claims that the Hammers are prepared to sell the former Lazio winger for around £13 million.
That would represent a missive £29 million lost for West Ham on the £42 million they paid for his services three years ago (Reuters).
That shouldn’t detract from the fact that we need to move Anderson on this summer, however.
He just hasn’t produced on a consistent enough basis since the midway point in the 2019/20 season.
The South American has just one year remaining on his current deal with West Ham.

And if the Hammers can get anything like £10 million for Anderson’s services at the end of the season then Moyes quite simply has to sell him.
