West Ham star Felipe Anderson reportedly struggling early doors at Porto
West Ham United winger Felipe Anderson is said to be struggling at FC Porto by Portuguese press.
The Brazilian is on a season-long loan with the giants and the Hammers faithful is hoping for him to rediscover his mojo.
Anderson’s second term at the London Stadium was not a particularly good one; he scored just one goal all season and laid on five assists.
For the money he cost – a reported £41.5 million all in () – his total statistics of 12 goals and 12 assists in 78 appearances has been a disappointing return.
It was decided Anderson would embark on a new chapter for 2020/21 in the form of Porto, but it’s been a pretty poor start for the South American.
Last night, he was not selected for the matchday squad to face Marseille in the Champions League, and describe him as being a ‘big disappointment’ since his arrival at the club.
He’s gotten just 49 minutes of game time so far across two appearances, and it seems the player was a lot of work to do to get back playing playing regularly again.
TBR’s View – Frustration for West Ham
This is certainly not what West Ham would have hoped for.
Anderson’s early struggles at Porto will theoretically only lower his market value.
Irons officials will no doubt be hoping for a swift turnaround soon, with the ultimate goal probably to recoup as much money as possible for the former Lazio man.
