Manchester City’s negotiations with West Ham over Paqueta have broken down and a deal now looks unlikely.
The rumour first came from reliable Journalist Alan Nixon who claims the “Manchester City move for Paqueta is OFF.”
A deal was believed to be close, with the Brazilian keen on a move to the Premier League Champions.

However, the latest reports suggest otherwise.
Man City move for West Ham midfielder Lucas Paqueta is on hold. Situation could change but “90% chance” deal won’t happen at the moment.

This leaves the Blues with a shortage in midfield with the Premier League already underway.
