West Ham Open Negotiations With PSG Over Potential Signing of PSG Midfielder Javier Pastore

West Ham are in talks to sign Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Javier Pastore in a deal worth around £17.5m.

Pastore played 34 games this season as PSG won the domestic treble but the French champions are prepared to let him leave as they aim to comply with UEFA's Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.

Sky Sports News reports that the Hammers have opened negotiations with PSG over a deal for the Argentine, and could snag him for a surprisingly low price given his talent and experience.

Pastore has played over 250 games for PSG since joining from Palermo in 2011, scoring 45 goals and winning 14 major honours during that time.
