Not long ago, it had also been reported by Goal Brasil that Everton were also interested in the striker, so we may be about to see a Premier League battle for this signing.
Featuring for Corinthians this season, Yuri Alberto has five goals and six assists in 27 appearances.
He was signed from Russian side Zenit in a swap in January, and it’s not yet know for how much the Brazilian club would accept selling him this summer.
Transfermarkt currently value him at €18m, so West Ham should probably get ready to pay something around that.
