West Ham’s hopes of landing Felipe Anderson from Lazio may have been boosted with the news that they have identified Celta Vigo’s Pione Sisto as a possible replacement.
Italian outlet Il Messaggero, as cited on Tutto Mercato Web, claims that the La Liga winger is wanted by Lazio this summer, on one condition.
However, the report claims that a deal would only take place if Anderson were to leave the club, with Celta Vigo asking for €20 million for Sisto’s services.
Sisto is one of the more exciting players in La Liga and has attracted a lot of interest Europe sides in recent months.
Anderson has been heavily linked with a move to West Ham and Chelsea this summer but is not going to come cheap.
Lazio are reportedly refusing to sell the former Santos star for anything under €40 million, despite rumours of a €38 million bid made by the Hammers.
