Man City reach personal terms with West Ham attacker Lucas Paqueta

Manchester City have struck personal terms with West Ham attacker Lucas Paqueta.

However, City are yet to open talks with the Hammers about a fee for the Brazil international.

City were targeting Paqueta last summer before the move was suspended as the midfielder became subject of a betting probe by Brazilian authorities.

Foot Mercato says City were willing to pay 86m for Paqueta and now have agreed personal terms with the player over a long-term agreement.

It's suggested West Ham may demand more than what was settled over 18 months ago.
