West Ham United manager David Moyes has hinted at the club returning to the South American market in the future when buying new players.
The Hammers have so far made just one signing this month in the transfer window, bringing in young Brazilian centre-back Luizao to the club on a free transfer from Sao Paulo, having made his first-team breakthrough for them in the 2022 season.
That move was announced just four months after West Ham spent an initial £35.6million (rising to £52.7m in potential future add-ons) to sign Brazil international Lucas Paqueta from Olympique Lyonnais, whose career started off via club football with Flamengo in his native country.
