​West Ham linked with Brazilian Pato

West Ham United have been linked with Corinthians star Alexandre Pato.

The Daily Mail is reporting Corinthians president Roberto de Andrade is eager to sell the 26-year-old and Upton Park could be a possible destination.

Pato had previously been linked with a move to the Premier League during the summer.

Pato has spent the past 18 months on loan at Sao Paulo, after falling out of favour at Corinthians.

The Brazilian international burst onto the scene with AC Milan in 2007, scoring 51 in 117 appearances for the Serie A club, before returning to his homeland with Corinthians in 2013.
