"West Ham United" during the upcoming transfer window is preparing to acquire the team's captain from Inter Milan.
According to "The Sun," the "Hammers" are seriously interested in acquiring the promising Mauro Icardi. However, the proposed amount for the Argentine is quite low - 25 million pounds sterling.
Icardi's departure from the fashion capital's team could be prompted by conflicts with the club's fans and management. The 23-year-old Argentine is the team's captain, but the club officials are already planning to transfer the captain's armband to another Inter player.
West Ham's attack is struggling this season, even though Simone Zaza was loaned from Juventus in the summer. In nine Premier League matches, only 10 goals have been scored.
This season, Icardi's form in Italy is quite solid - he has scored the same number of goals in the seven matches played.
