West Ham United are expected to have a quiet January transfer window this month but already, they have made one signing.
Before the month started, the Hammers announced the signing of 20-year-old centre-back Luizao from Sao Paulo following a breakout 2022 campaign for his hometown club, arriving on a free transfer following the end of his contract in his native Brazil.
The centre-back’s arrival has seen him initially link up with the club’s under-21s with the hope that success there will see him later earn a promotion into the first-team squad under David Moyes.
