"givemesport" exclusive news, West Ham is willing to let midfield star Paqueta go, and Porter hopes to rebuild the Hammers' midfield lineup.

After a disappointing 24-25 season (14th in the Premier League), the Hammers hope to strengthen the team's roster, but the premise of making important signings is to raise enough funds. In terms of signings, West Ham has signed Diouf and Peters so far, and the team's full-back position has been strengthened.

transfer out of players, Kudus transferred to Tottenham for £55 million. Cao Fal, Cresville, Fabianski, Danny Ins and Antonio have all left the team, and now another key player, Paqueta, may also transfer. Paqueta's current weekly salary is £150,000. He has been in huge legal disputes with the FA over alleged manipulation of the game, but Paqueta has always denied the allegations.

According to our sources, the Brazil international is expected to be exempted from all charges of misconduct, and will make the outside world's interest in Paqueta more clear. The Hammer Gang is ready to sell him and is open to his offer, but it is not clear what price West Ham will mark Paqueta. Paqueta had been close to transferring to Manchester City for £85 million (demolition fee) but the deal failed after he was charged.

It seems that Paqueta is unlikely to sell such a high price, but some teams have expressed interest in him. For example, Brazilian giants Flamenco asked about potential deals, and Paqueta had publicly stated that this was a team he supported. In addition, Saudi Jeddah nationals are also interested in Paqueta, and the Premier League players they are concerned about are Tottenham's Bisuma.

One of the reasons why West Ham is willing to let Paqueta go is that head coach Porter hopes to completely rebuild the team's midfield. In addition to Paqueta, there are also questions about the future of South American double stars Edson Alvarez and Guido Rodriguez, both of whom may be sold. Since Porter took office, the two players have significantly reduced their chances of playing, and they have failed to become core players of the Hammers.

West Ham's midfield targets include Canus of Leicester City, who is seen as a potential replacement for Paqueta. Arsenal's Fabio Vieira and Chelsea's Hall are both on West Ham's interest list.
