"West Ham" is closing in on the acquisition of S. Zaza

London's "West Ham" hopes to conclude negotiations on the transfer of Turin's "Juventus" striker Simone Zaza in the coming days, according to the football news portal Goal.com.

"The Hammers" have been actively searching for a new forward recently, as record club purchase Andre Ayew will be out for up to four months due to injury.

The Italian national team player has become the main target for Slaven Bilic.

It is still unclear whether Zaza will move to England on loan or permanently, but the first option is more acceptable for "West Ham."

"Juve" is demanding 25 million pounds for their forward. His requested salary is 100 thousand pounds per week.
