# West Ham and Lazio continue to negotiate Anderson price

West Ham’s negotiations with Lazio regarding the acquisition of Felipe Anderson have been slightly delayed, according to Italian news outlet [Di Marzio](https://gianlucadimarzio.com/it/lazio-piccola-frenata-nella-trattativa-felipe-anderson-west-ham).

The Hammers are closing in on the signing of the impressive Brazilian attacker, with a transfer expected to be completed in the not-so-distant future.

Lazio are understood to be open to selling Anderson and it seems West Ham are leading a host of potential suitors in the race for his signature ahead of next season.

However, according to Di Marzio, talks are only progressing at a slow pace right now, with disagreements still prevailing with regards to the cost of the deal.

It’s claimed that Lazio are looking to take €35 million from the sale of Anderson, along with a further €5m in additional bonuses – a price West Ham are said to be unwilling to meet.

The Hammers are desperate to recruit Anderson and are thought to be prepared to splash the cash to close a deal. However, it seems further negotiations will need to take place if this one is to be pushed over the line.
