Impact Paqueta had another solid season for the Hammers in his second campaign with the club, notching his first double-digit goal contribution tally in the Premier League. He also provided in the defense, serving as a decent two-way player after registering 21 interceptions, 25 clearances and 71 tackles. The Brazilian has been linked to multiple moves around Europe despite having numerous years left on his contract, with Manchester City being the leading contender.
