West Ham United are allegedly interested in signing talented Brazilian youngster Eguinaldo.
That’s according to a report from Atenção Vascaínos who claim that the Hammers’ Head of Recruitment Rob Newman has visited the Brazilian club’s training ground to run his eye over the young winger.
The 18-year-old Vasco da Game starlet is a huge talent and is very highly rated indeed in his homeland.
David Moyes made some huge summer signings, but he has always been a manager who keeps an eye on the very brightest young talents as well.
Supremely talented young duo Patrick Kelly and Callum Marshall both recently moved to the London Stadium from Northern Ireland. And now it seems as though Moyes has his eye on a completely different continent for the next big thing…
West Ham eyeing move for exciting Brazilian youngster Eguinaldo
Information coming from Atenção Vascaínos suggests that Rob Newman is very keen to bring the teenage winger to the London Stadium in the summer.
The Vasco da Gama sensation is a truly elite talent and he could end up being a tremendous addition for West Ham.
He has already bagged three goals in 17 senior appearances for his club so far (Transfermarkt).
Like every Brazilian attacker, Eguinaldo possesses exceptional technical ability and has incredible flair.
The young star’s agent Mauricio Nassif has confirmed that West Ham are indeed interested in signing his client (Atenção Vascaínos).
And it is suggested that West Ham can sign Eguinaldo if we meet his £26 million release clause, according to Atenção Vascaínos.
We would love to see the talented teen sensation arrive at the London Stadium in the January transfer window.
Whether the Hammers board will be prepared to meet his alleged £26 million release clause remains to be seen though.
