Real Madrid show interest in West Ham United midfielder Lucas Paqueta
Recent social media activity from Real Madrid player Eduardo Camavinga has sparked speculation about the Spanish giants’ interest in West Ham United midfielder Lucas Paqueta. Camavinga shared video clips of Paqueta on social media, indicating his desire to see the Brazilian join him at the Bernabeu, as reported by Brazilian outlet Bola Vip.
While this does not confirm any concrete transfer negotiations, it is worth monitoring Paqueta’s situation as he possesses the quality to play for a top club like Real Madrid. In the past, Paqueta was close to a move to Flamengo and has also been linked to Manchester City.
Could Lucas Paqueta Leave West Ham for Real Madrid?
West Ham will likely resist letting go of a key player like Paqueta, especially considering the ongoing FA investigation into his alleged gambling activities. While Paqueta is a talented player, his future could be uncertain depending on the investigation results, potentially deterring Real Madrid from pursuing him.
Additionally, Paqueta’s friendship with Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior could play a role in any potential move to the Spanish club alongside Camavinga, as both players could be integral to Madrid’s future plans. Madrid may view Paqueta as a suitable long-term replacement for veteran playmaker Luka Modric, although filling Modric’s shoes completely would be a monumental task.
