Paqueta eyes West Ham exit after Flamengo agreement - Soccer News
"Lucas Paqueta wants to leave West Ham and has already reached an agreement with Flamengo over personal terms. The talks between the clubs are apparently underway. Two months ago, Paqueta openly spoke, if unwisely, about his desire to return to Brazil and play for Flamengo once more. He revealed he had spoken to Luis Felipe, his friend and Flamengo head coach, about that, and that he had expressed his desire to his representatives as well."
"The 28-year-old attacking midfielder is under contract with West Ham until the summer of 2027, but the Premier League side surely won't want to keep hold of the player against his wish to return to his homeland - always presuming their demands for the transfer to take place are met. Paqueta has made a total of 139 appearances for the Hammers in all competitions, scoring 23 goals and producing 15 assists, since arriving to the London Stadium from Olympique Lyon in 2022."
Lucas Paquetá has reached agreement with Flamengo on personal terms and wants to return to Brazil. Talks between Flamengo and West Ham are ongoing as the clubs negotiate a transfer. Paquetá publicly expressed his desire to rejoin Flamengo two months earlier, and told friends and representatives including Flamengo head coach Luis Felipe. The 28-year-old attacking midfielder remains under contract with West Ham until summer 2027, but the club is unlikely to force him to stay if transfer demands are met. Paquetá joined West Ham from Olympique Lyon in 2022, has 139 appearances, 23 goals, 15 assists, and 61 Brazil caps.
