Long-term West Ham target Youssef En-Nesyri wants to remain in Spain despite loan offer tabled for Sevilla star - as under-fire boss David Moyes also looks set to be priced out of move for Lorient's Terem Moffi in January

West Ham have made a new approach for Sevilla forward Youssef En-Nesyri.

The Moroccan is a long-term target for David Moyes, who wants to increase competition among his forwards, but West Ham have discussed an initial loan and the 25-year-old En-Nesyri has indicated he is not yet ready to leave Spain.

West Ham have also asked about Lorient's Terem Moffi but are unable to meet the asking price of around £25m. Southampton have already had a bid rejected for the 23-year-old Moffi, who also has interest from Everton.

David Moyes' side has long targeted En-Nesyri this January, after Sportsmail reported interest last month, on a loan deal.
