According to Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol, West Ham are considering the possibility of signing Reims striker Boulaye Dia in the January transfer window.
The Hammers are looking to bolster their forward department following the departure of Sebastien Haller who joined Ajax this month for a fee of £20 million.
West Ham have Michail Antonio as the only recognised striker with them at the moment and the England international has a poor track record of injuries.
David Moyes needs a striker this month. Solhekol has claimed that the Hammers are looking to sign a young striker who has experience of playing in England, although he has had success in signing players from abroad.
