West Ham 'consider late deadline day loan move for Fikayo Tomori' after Chelsea failed to shift out-of-favour centre-back Antonio Rudiger

West Ham are considering a deadline day move for Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori, according to football.london.

The young centre-back has found himself out-of-favour in Frank Lampard's Chelsea set-up with the signing of Thiago Silva knocking Tomori further down the pecking order.

Chelsea's failure to offload Antonio Rudiger has also seen an overload of defenders at Stamford Bridge and West Ham are hoping to capitalise.
