West Ham United are reportedly prepared to part ways with star midfielder Lucas Paquetá this summer, as his release clause is set to become active at the end of the season. The Brazilian playmaker, who has been a standout performer since arriving from Lyon in 2022, could leave the London Stadium if a club meets his £85 million release clause.
Paquetá has attracted significant interest from top clubs across Europe, including Manchester City, who previously explored a move before the deal stalled due to an ongoing betting investigation. With his clause set to trigger, renewed interest is expected from the Premier League champions and other elite sides.
West Ham are reluctant to lose the 26-year-old but understand that the clause gives them little control should a club meet the asking price. P
