According to a report from Portuguese media outlet Record, Felipe Anderson could be forced to return to West Ham in January if Porto complete the signing of Hulk from Shanghai SIPG.

And some Hammers fans have reacted on Twitter to those claims.
Anderson joined West Ham from Lazio in the summer of 2018 for around £36 million (BBC).
The Brazilian impressed initially at the London Stadium. Unfortunately for him, however, his form fell of the face of a cliff last season.
And he began the 2020/21 campaign in equally poor fashion.
The 27-year-old, who earns £85,000 per week according to Spotrac, was swiftly shipped out to Porto on loan for the season last month.
Anderson has experienced similar problems in Portugal, however.
The 27-year-old has played just 49 minutes for the Portuguese club so far, however. And he has been completely omitted from Porto’s squad for the last few games.
It now seems as though the winger could be set for an early return to West Ham. That’s if Porto bring Hulk back to the club from China in January, according to Record.
