West Ham have reportedly got Club America ace, Pedro Aquino, ‘in their sights’ as the January transfer window approaches.
The Hammers are joined in their interest in the 26-year-old by Premier League rivals Leeds United and Brentford.
That’s according to a report from Libero, as cited by RumorsTransfersNews24/7 on Twitter.

The report claims that the English clubs will ‘seek’ to land the 34-cap Peru man when the transfer market opens next month.
So far this season the defensive-minded midfielder has made 14 Liga MX appearances.
READ WEST HAM VERDICT
Valued at £6.3million and under contract in Mexico until 2024 (Transfermarkt), signing Aquino would likely be an expensive mid-season venture for the Irons.
Supremely versatile, the Peruvian would be a smart acquisition to bolster the options at David Moyes’ disposal.
Albeit not a priority like an additional frontman or central defender, bringing Aquino to the London Stadium would be a welcome piece of January business.
