West Ham are hoping to secure a deal to sign Felipe Anderson after tabling a club-record bid to sign the Brazilain.
According to Goal, as cited on Calcio Mercato, the Hammers have lodged a €45 million bid to finally bring the player to the London Stadium.
Anderson has been heavily linked with West Ham since the end of the season, with a deal now appearing to be in sight.
The Brazilian was bracing himself for late interest from Chelsea, who had kept tabs on the player as a transfer target for Maurizio Sarri.
There were also some suggestions that Lazio could convince him to stay at the club with a bumper new contract offer.
The Hammers now appear to be closing in on a double deal for Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko, who is set to join from Borussia Dortmund.
Both Anderson and Yarmolenko will help form a new-look West Ham squad under Manuel Pellegrini.
