Bowen sparks West Ham’s first home win since February

November 2025

West Ham beat Newcastle 3-1, ending a nine-month home drought and delivering Espírito Santo’s first win, lifting them to 18th. Lucas Paquetá equalized, Sven Botman scored an own goal, and Tomáš Souček sealed it in stoppage time. West Ham sustained pressure after Jacob Murphy’s opener, attacked early crosses, and exploited transition turnovers. VAR reversed a first-half penalty after Malick Thiaw’s touch. Late game management improved, with second-ball wins and compact spacing protecting the lead. Gap to 17th cut to three points.

Aston Villa Close to £47m Deal for Lucas Paquetá

Aston Villa are on the verge of signing Lucas Paquetá on loan with obligation to buy in a £47m package. The Brazilian midfielder has accepted the move, leaving West Ham under pressure amid their poor start to the season. Paquetá’s exit would be a major blow for Graham Potter’s struggling West Ham, who lost their opening three matches. For Villa, competing in Europe, his arrival bolsters depth and creativity under Unai Emery, though UEFA’s cost control rules have restricted earlier moves.
