"The Brazil international has had a mixed spell at the London Stadium, occasionally looking like a world beater and at one point attracting interest from Manchester City, as per the Guardian and others. However, Paqueta has also been quite inconsistent and his form has gone a little downhill in recent times, though the club will have been glad to keep hold of him amid interest from Aston Villa in the transfer window just gone, as per the Daily Mail."
"Paqueta is not looking to leave and West Ham not looking to sell. But if someone comes in with this asking price, which is around 60 million I am told, then, yeah, he could go. It will be interesting to keep an eye on how this saga develops as we get closer to January, but at the moment it's perhaps hard to imagine anyone being particularly keen to pay quite that much for Paqueta."
"West Ham United manager Nuno Espirito Santo would reportedly be willing to cash in on key midfield player Lucas Paqueta for around 60m. Now, though, there's fresh speculation over Paqueta's situation, with new manager Nuno seemingly ready to let the 28-year-old go for a fee of 60m. That's according to reliable West Ham outlet Hammers News, though it remains to be seen if anyone will be coming in for him."
Nuno Espirito Santo is reportedly prepared to sell Lucas Paqueta for approximately 60m. Paqueta has produced moments of world-class play but has been inconsistent and experienced a recent dip in form. Earlier interest from Manchester City and Aston Villa arose during his time at the London Stadium. West Ham would prefer to retain Paqueta, and the player does not want to leave, but the club faces a need to raise funds and may consider offers for its most sellable assets. A 60m bid could prompt a sale despite the transfer representing a gamble given his uneven displays and age.
