'Man City could be career-making move for Paqueta'
South American football expert Tim Vickery speaking to Transfer Talk:"I can certainly see Lucas Paqueta leaving. With West Ham bringing in James Ward-Prowse and maybe looking to bring in Mohammed Kudus from Ajax, they would appear to be preparing the terrain.
"From the point of view of Paqueta, this could be the career-making move. He’s 26 later this month, he’s got over 40 caps for Brazil, and you don’t get 40 caps for Brazil as an attacking midfielder unless you can play a little bit. He isn’t blessed with pace so he is more a combination player.
"Going to Manchester City gives him far more combination to combine, far better players with whom to combine, and in a team with far more possession of the ball. This could really be the move that makes his career."
