The Hammers have proposed a deal worth £30m to Chelsea for striker Armando Broja, who scored nine goals in 38 games in all competitions on loan at Southampton last season; West Ham are still awaiting a response from Lille after they made an improved, third offer for Amadou Onana.
With rumours linking Chelsea's Armando Broja with a move away from Stamford Bridge, take a look at all of his goals from his season on loan with Southampton.
The Hammers have proposed a deal worth 30m Euros to Chelsea for striker Armando Broja, who scored nine goals in 38 games in all competitions on loan at Southampton last season.
It is thought West Ham are prepared to pay 25m Euros up front for the Albania international. Negotiations continue between the clubs and are now at an advanced stage.
Armando Broja has flown back from Chelsea's pre-season tour of the USA and will have treatment on an injury he sustained there. It is not thought to be serious.
West Ham have been among several Premier League clubs interested in signing Armando Broja this summer including Everton, Newcastle and Southampton.
Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has confirmed the club have received offers for Broja but he expects him to stay at Stamford Bridge.
"I don't expect him to leave. I'm aware of the offers and aware of the interest. We will make a decision together, the owner and me and the player," Tuchel said during a press conference on Tuesday.
"When he arrived it's clear he's trying to impress and become a Chelsea player. After his Southampton loan it's clear he wants to make the next step. Unfortunately, he got injured and there is now a lot of interest in him. Lets see how that goes. He has a contract here.
"We have a lot of options but not the type of Armando. Last season with him and Conor Gallagher we always have to weigh up what's good for them and the club. Is there a prospect of him getting minutes here? He has already played in the Premier League. With Armando we have to look at the situation very carefully and individually and decide do we have the minutes we can offer so he can grow here or give him another loan to give him match minutes."
David Moyes is also in search of a boost in midfield and West Ham are still awaiting a response from Lille after they made an improved, third offer for Amadou Onana
The latest bid is thought to be around 32.3m (38m) plus add-ons which Lille are seriously considering.
They signed 20-year-old Onana from Hamburg for 7m last summer so stand to make a significant profit on the Belgium international who made 11 starts and 21 sub appearances in France's Ligue 1 last season.
