Ludogorets winger Jonathan Cafu is a target for West Ham, Leicester City and newly promoted Brighton, according to Sport Witness. They report the 25 year old has a release clause of €12million or £10million.

The Bulgarian club have reportedly told Brighton that they are holding out for the release clause while the Hammers and Leicester are due to discuss summer transfer targets in the next few days to decide whether a move for the midfielder is worthwhile.

Cafu scored against Arsenal for Ludogorets in the Champions League group stages this season, and had a good record in the European competition having scored four goals and provided five assists in 12 appearances, including qualification matches.

Predominantly a right winger, the Brazilian has also been in good form for Ludogorets in the league with ten goals in 23 games so far this campaign.

With Robert Snodgrass and Michail Antonio both favouring the right side of midfield, a move for another right winger may not be at the forefront of the club’s minds in the summer, but it will be interesting to see whether the release clause will tempt them into bidding.
