Report: West Ham agree to loan out David Moyes signing with buy option now being discussed

West Ham are working hard to trim their squad after adding eight new signings this summer.

The West Ham owners have reached into their pockets to back new manager Julen Lopetegui with a new-look squad.

But the dressing room at the London Stadium is now slightly overcrowded and the Hammers are looking to offload several players before the transfer window slams shut at the end of August.

Lopetegui was criticised for not starting his new signings in the 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa at the weekend, but the Spaniard will soon have no choice with multiple first-team players set to leave.

West Ham agree loan deal for defender

With Max Kilman and Jean-Clair Todibo now signed, West Ham are ready to sell a handful of defenders at the club with Kurt Zouma, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Vladimir Coufal all facing an uncertain future.

The Hammers have also made Luizao available this summer just 18 months after he joined the London outfit.

According to Globo, West Ham have now agreed a one-year loan deal for Luizao with Brazilian side Corinthians.

The loan agreement has been reached and the report adds that they are now discussing “the values ​​and percentages of the purchase option that will be fixed in the contract”.

Luizao set for West Ham exit

Luizao was signed by David Moyes as an exciting young defender who could potentially progress to the first-team.

However, the 22-year-old has fallen well short of expectations and he is now set to depart without having made a single first-team appearance.

It looks likely that he will soon be followed out the exit door by others.
