West Ham’s season start could get worse, but in reports that Tottenham and Aston Villa are evaluating the moves of major midfielder Lucas Paketa.<\/p>\n

Manager Graham Potter has already only two games in the season, with fans restless and interested in two trips to Nottingham Forest and Tottenham.<\/p>\n
And there could be more issues for Hammer amid the great interest in Paketa, who has just been allowed to cheate in the investigation of betting allegations.<\/p>\n

Paketa has played 122 times in the hammer and scored 19 times since his \u00a351 million club record from Lyon.<\/p>\n
However, Tottenham may be preoccupied by another transfer as Tottenham bids on Manchester City’s Savinho.<\/p>\n
Thomas Frank identified the Brazilian winger as the best target, and this month he conducted the first investigation that was rejected.<\/p>\n
According to the report, the London side is ready to offer over \u00a360 million to finish the signature, and players are keen to move if the city gives it a green light.<\/p>\n
