Lazio close in on deal for West Ham and Arsenal target Wesley Moraes

Lazio are in pole position to land Club Brugge’s Wesley Moraes this summer despite a number Premier League sides showing interest in the striker.

West Ham, Arsenal and Newcastle United have all been linked with a move for Moraes in recent weeks, however according to Italian outlet Calcio Mercato, Lazio are close to landing the striker. 

The report suggests the Biancocelesti are leading the way in the pursuit of the striker, who is also on the radar of a number of Chinese Super League sides.

The Serie A side are said to be in talks with the Belgian side over a deal worth an initial €18million plus €3million in potential add ons, though Club Brugge are reportedly looking to increase the overall fee to €25million. 

Moraes impressed for the Belgian outfit last season, with 13 goals and seven assists in the league, and it appears as though the Premier League trio will have to act quickly to sign the striker this summer.
