West Ham handed major transfer boost as target becomes free agent in January

Sao Paulo’s coach Rogerio Ceni has confirmed that the defender’s contract ends in the winter and he will leave the club in the coming transfer window.

As per multiple reports, the Premier League side is keen to bring the 20-year-old to London Stadium in January.

The Brazilian, who surprisingly turned down his chance to move to England in the summer, could join David Moyes’ side for a zero cost.

Speaking to Bolavip, the Brazillian giant’s head coach has claimed that the player will part ways with his side when he gets out of contract.

“I face this (the exits) as a normal thing. I regret the way they leave. It was for the club to make good money with these players. What we regret most is a young player like Luizão, with a contract ending in January, leaving free.”
