West Ham face stiff competition for a second Sao Paulo talent.
The Mirror says West Ham are plotting another raid on Sao Paulo for Brazilian midfielder Pablo Maia.
The Premier League Hammers have just agreed a three-and-a-half-year deal for defender Luizao, 20, is out of contract at Sao Paulo at the end of January.
Now boss David Moyes also wants compatriot and midfielder Maia, 20, who made 32 appearances last term in the Brazilian top-flight for Sao Paulo, who came ninth.
Maia has interest from AC Milan and FC Porto but the defensive midfielder favours linking up with Luizao and West Ham's Brazilian international Lucas Paquetá in London.
