West Ham United attacker Felipe Anderson is closer to a permanent move to Lazio.

Respected transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano claims that talks between Lazio and West Ham are advancing this week.

Anderson has already agreed personal terms with the Italian outfit as he seeks to resurrect his career.

He arrived at West Ham from Lazio in 2018 for a then-club record fee.

Despite impressing in his first season, Anderson has struggled to replicate that form in subsequent campaigns.

He spent last term on loan at Porto and had a difficult time, failing to score or assist in nine matches.
