West Ham have added Red Bull Leipzig striker Andre Silva to their list of targets as they look to bring in another forward this window.
The Irons are desperate to bring in attacking reinforcements after losing Michail Antonio, Jarrod Bowen and Niclas Fullkrug to injuries.
Antonio will miss the rest of the season after his horror car accident last month, while Fullkrug is expected to be sidelined for several weeks with a significant hamstring injury.
Bowen could return in early February, but is a more natural winger, and new manager Graham Potter wants to ease the burden on the England international.
