David Moyes gives West Ham transfer updates on Lucas Paqueta and Hans Vanaken after Viborg win

West Ham United boss David Moyes has said he has not heard anything on the club’s transfer pursuits of Lyon midfielder Lucas Paqueta or Club Brugge midfielder Hans Vanaken.

The club are interested in signing both Paqueta and Vanaken. Already, they have seen a bid of £33.8m for Paqueta rejected by the Ligue 1 outfit, as well as two bids for Vanaken rejected.

Speaking after the 3-0 win over Danish side Viborg to seal a 6-1 aggregate victory in the play-off qualifying round of the Europa Conference League, Moyes said that he had not had an update on the situations with either player.

“I’ve not heard any more today about either of them,” Moyes told football.london. “I probably wouldn’t pick anything up until tomorrow morning.”

West Ham, who won the first leg 3-1 a week ago at the London Stadium, sealed their second leg victory at the Energi Viborg Arena with goals from Gianluca Scamacca, Said Benrahma and Tomas Soucek.

On Friday afternoon, they will discover which three sides they will come against in the group stages of the competition, sealing a second full season in Europe after reaching the semi-finals of last season’s Europa League.
