Nene already chasing new West Ham deal

Nene hopes to extend his stay with West Ham United.

The Brazilian attacker has signed with the Hammers to the end of the season.

But the 33-year-old wants a longer contract and has set his sights on playing at the Olympic Stadium when West Ham move to their new home for the 2016-17 season.

"It will be a very beautiful stadium," he told the London Evening Standard. "The club has been waiting for it for a long time [and] we are looking forward to it. Even for myself, who has just arrived, it is no different. They have shown me some pictures, the project, and I hope to be part of the squad in the opening match at this wonderful stadium."
