West Ham United are reportedly on the verge of signing Vitoria de Guimaraes attacker Xande Silva.

The 21-year-old, who spent time at Sporting Lisbon during his youth career, has scored once in 30 first-team appearances for Vitoria since making the breakthrough.

According to Record, West Ham will sign the former Portugal Under-20 international for a fee which could reach £3.1m, and the attacker will join up with the English club's Under-23 side upon his arrival.

Should the deal go through, Silva would become West Ham's eighth signing of what has been a very busy summer transfer window.

The Hammers will continue their preparations for the 2018-19 campaign with a clash against Mainz 05 on Tuesday afternoon.
