West Ham Takes a Step Closer to Signing 17-Year-Old Brazilian Midfielder Guilherme for £25.5m

West Ham is on the brink of finalizing a 30m euro (£25.5m) deal for Brazilian midfielder Luis Guilherme from Palmeiras. The club’s director of football, Tim Steidten, has been in South America working to strengthen new manager Julen Lopetegui’s team. Despite early concerns that the transfer might fall through, sources have informed BBC Sport that it is now nearly complete.

Guilherme, who made his debut for Palmeiras at just 17 years old in 2023, also featured for the team in the current season’s Copa Libertadores group stage. He has previous experience representing his home country at the under-20 level, demonstrating his talent and potential as a promising young player.

West Ham fans can look forward to seeing Guilherme showcase his skills in the Premier League under Lopetegui’s leadership if the deal goes through as expected. This signing would mark West Ham’s first acquisition since David Moyes was replaced by Lopetegui and Steidten took charge of the club’s transfer business.
