According to Fabrizio Romano, West Ham are now set to sign Castellanos, 27, from Italian side Lazio after already agreeing a fee to sign Pablo from Gil Vicente.
It’s understood that Castellanos will cost the East London club around £25 million, while the deal to sign Pablo is worth £17.5m.
Castellanos hasn’t been particularly prolific so far this season, scoring just twice in his 12 games across all competitions.
Pablo, on the other hand, has had a genuinely impressive season in Portugal, scoring ten in his 14 games.
