West Ham are reluctant to sanction a sale for Lucas Paqueta this month amid interest in the attacker from Brazil. Paqueta, who has 18 months remaining on his contract at London Stadium, is expected to leave West Ham in either this current transfer window or in the summer. Paqueta has featured 18 times in the Premier League for West Ham so far this campaign, scoring four and assisting once. It is understood Flamengo would be willing to table an offer of about £35m for Paqueta. In December, Nuno said Paqueta is still affected by the investigation into spot-fixing charges brought against him.
