According to The Sun, West Ham United have been handed a potential transfer boost as they can sign Lyon centre-back Marcelo for free next summer.
The Hammers were close to landing him for £20 million last January as he was keen to leave the French side for the Premier League, but the deal fell through.
Marcelo has just seven months left on his current deal at Lyon and isn’t close to signing a new deal as things stand.
The 33-year-old will most likely leave as a free agent at the end of 2020-21, and that would give West Ham the opportunity to land him for nothing.
