West Ham eye summer swoop for Corinthians £21m-rated teenager Wesley

West Ham United are targeting Corinthians teenager Wesley as part of the club's move in a different direction this summer. Mail Sport understands the Hammers watched the opening game of the Brazilian Serie A season last month to make checks on the 19-year-old. Wesley, who can operate off either wing or in behind a striker, is valued at around £21million by Corinthians, who have already knocked back West Ham's opening proposal. Sporting director Tim Steidten was in Sao Paulo last summer for talks with the seven-time national champions over other potential targets.
