West Ham United technical director Tim Steidten has flown to Brazil to push through a transfer deal.

Steidten has been hard at work over the past few weeks getting deals done for manager David Moyes.

Having secured the likes of Edson Alvarez, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Mohammed Kudus, the Hammers are not finished.

Per The Mail, Steidten is in Brazil to conclude a deal for 22-year-old striker Yuri Alberto.

The forward is a Corinthians star who the Hammers are close to securing on a permanent deal.

However, the club must move quickly, as the forward is also wanted by Al-Ettifaq in Saudi Arabia.
