West Ham United eyes Femi Azeez while pausing on Fabio Vieira deal

West Ham United is reportedly evaluating a move for 25‑year‑old Nigerian winger Femi Azeez, who currently plays for Millwall. TalkSPORT cites a possible transfer fee between €15 million and €24 million, with Millwall insisting on a minimum of £15 million. Azeez, under contract until June 2028, has scored 11 goals and provided seven assists in the 2025‑26 season, and his sale could trigger a bidding war involving Hull City, AFC Bournemouth and Ipswich Town.

In a separate development, the club has indicated no immediate interest in signing 26‑year‑old Portuguese midfielder Fabio Vieira from Arsenal. After a loan spell at Hamburger SV, Arsenal’s asking price of roughly €18 million has stalled talks. Other suitors such as Hamburg, Nottingham Forest and FC Porto remain in contention, while West Ham may revisit the player if its transfer priorities shift later in the window.
