Fans of West Ham United have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays reports that the club are interested in West Brom’s on-loan winger Matheus Pereira.
According to the reports by Football Insider, West Ham would be willing to make a move for the £10.8million-rated Brazilain should he be available this summer, something which would largely depend on whether West Brom manage to achieve promotion from the Championship.
In reaction to the news, which was relayed by West Ham Fan Zone on Twitter, fans of the club have flocked to share their opinion on the potential signing, with many stating their belief that the 23-year-old would be a great addition to the club.

He is class

He’s quality!
WBA apparently have an £8.25m clause to buy & anything around that would be an absolute steal!
Excellent dribbling, great passer & set piece taker as well.— Steven McCarthy (@StevenMcCarthy9) March 19, 2020
Yes please

Matheus Pereira would be a good addition to the West Ham squad – has impressed for West Brom this season and would be a good option for West Ham next season. What with Lanzini seemingly heading for the exit – Pereira would be close to a like for like replacement.

What do we think?
Pereria has certainly impressed for West Brom this season, with the winger scoring six goals and providing a remarkable 16 assists in his 33 Championship appearances for the Baggies.
The player, who is on-loan from Sporting Lisbon, has also averaged an extraordinary WhoScored match rating of 7.34 throughout his league fixtures this season.
However, West Ham’s interest could be in vain, as, according to Football Insider, the Baggies can make Pereria’s loan deal a permanent move deal for “over £8million” once the winger has played 45 minutes of 30 matches.
