West Ham United fans in the Transfer Tavern will be looking forward to what Manuel Pellegrini can bring to the London Stadium this summer, however, one man may not be in his grasp.
The Hammers have been linked with numerous high-quality players since the Chilean took over from David Moyes last month and has already been quick to make a number of deals happen as he wants to get his team sorted quickly.
One man that has been rumoured with a move is SS Lazio’s Felipe Anderson, however, it appears that it could be more difficult to complete than any of the other deals Pellegrini is aiming to get done.
Thanks, confident is too strong. Hopeful is probably a better description https://t.co/xfI2CHFRaM

In fact, according to ExWHUemployee on Twitter, who has proven to be very reliable for a source of news into the club, there is more of a “hopeful” element to a transfer being completed for the Brazil international, rather than a confidence.
Landlord’s Verdict
The West Ham fans in the Tavern will be desperate to see a man like Anderson arrive at the London Stadium as it will show their intentions and ambitions clearly, as the gifted midfielder would be able to help guide them into contention for a European football spot.
However, locals will be concerned that there could only be some hope about a possible transfer happening, rather than when they seemed confident and will be watching with anticipation to see what the next stage brings.
West Ham fans – thoughts?
