West Ham agree £15m deal for Flamengo centre-back Fabrício Bruno
Initial fee for Brazil international has been set at £12.5mPlayer is poised to be first signing of the Lopetegui era
West Ham have agreed a deal to buy the defender Fabrício Bruno from Flamengo for £12.5m plus £2.5m in add-ons. The 28-year-old is in line to become the first signing since Julen Lopetegui was confirmed as head coach last week.
Fabrício Bruno made his Brazil debut against England at Wembley in March but has not been selected in the squad for this summer’s Copa América. The centre-back has not played for a club outside his homeland.
