West Ham United are considering recalling Felipe Anderson from his loan at Porto, with the Guardian reporting that the Hammers could then send him elsewhere this month.

Anderson has struggled to make an impact during his time in Portugal. He has only made three appearances for the club in all competitions.

It appears that he still has no future at West Ham. But the Hammers are concerned about his lack of game-time and may take action this month.

According to the Guardian, the Irons want to end Anderson’s loan with Porto. They then plan to send him elsewhere.

The report notes that they want his value to be as high as possible as they hope to sell the £37 million star permanently in the summer.

David Moyes’s men are yet to rue loaning Anderson – who earns £85,000-a-week, according to Spotrac – out last year. West Ham sit in the top-half of the Premier League and are just three points off the top four.

So it may be wise to loan him out elsewhere this month. Should he impress at another club, the Hammers should be able to ask for a higher fee at the end of the season than they may be able to should he stay put.

That will then obviously hand Moyes’s transfer kitty a considerable boost.
