West Ham United fly Lucas Paqueta to Hull to sort UK work permit – ExWHUemployee

West Ham United are flying Lucas Paqueta to Hull to try and solve a work permit crisis that has appeared out of nowhere, according to ExWHUemployee.

The reliable source has reported that the Brazilian is in a race against time to be registered for the Premier League showdown against Spurs in midweek.

With no appointments in London on Tuesday [30 August], so the flight to Hull has been booked to try and get him registered before the midday deadline.

Writing on the West Ham Way Patreon page on Monday [29 August], Ex shared the race against time that both club and player are currently in.

“The club face a race against time to get the player registered for the match against Spurs,” he wrote.

“Whilst he will get a work permit there are currently no appointments in London tomorrow, so the club are flying the player to Hull to try and get it done there and the player registered by midday.”

Fingers Crossed.

David Moyes will no doubt be desperate to get a permit over the line and Paqueta registered so he can feature against Spurs, with his new record transfer itching to get going.

GSBK have to be praised for splashing up the cash against and for also being proactive in the hunt to get him registered, with a flight to Hull most likely what no one expected today.

With there being no issues regarding his application for a permit given his European experience with Lyon and his numerous caps for Brazil, it should be done quickly.

West Ham United are rushing, and that is a huge sign that he could be involved heavily against Spurs regardless of how little training he has been able to go through.

We have needed another main man to link the attack and midfield for ages now with too much reliance on Declan Rice, and Paqueta is the perfect man for that job.
