West Ham United are reportedly interested in signing Brazil starlet Anderson Talisca in January.
The Premier League side, who currently sit eighth in the standings heading into the New Year, are keen to fight off rivals Arsenal and Liverpool to the Benfica attacking midfielder during next month’s transfer window.
The 21-year-old, who is a Brazil Under-23 international, has scored once in 15 appearances in all competitions for the Liga NOS outfit so far this season.
It is understood that Hammers boss Slaven Bilic could be tempted in making a loan bid for Talisca in the New Year to help ease the club’s attacking injury woes.
