West Ham United are close to securing the signing of Felipe Anderson from Lazio in a club-record transfer, according to a report.
Talks between the two clubs are believed to have resumed over the past few days and a deal could be wrapped up before the end of the week.
Sky Sports News suggests that United have offered a substantial sum for the 25-year-old, surpassing the £21.9m splashed out to sign Issa Diop from Toulouse earlier this summer.
All that is left to complete is personal terms with the one-cap Brazil international, who has scored 34 goals in 177 appearances for Lazio.
Borussia Dortmund forward Andriy Yarmolenko is thought to be undergoing a medical with West Ham, meanwhile, and Jack Wilshere officially put pen to paper on a three-year deal at the London Stadium on Monday afternoon.
