West Ham United and manager David Moyes are also eyeing a move for Blackburn Rovers star Ben Brereton Diaz amid their busy window.

The Lowdown: Hammers keep busy...

The Hammers are keeping well and truly busy ahead of their blockbuster Premier League opening weekend clash against Manchester City on Sunday as they remain linked with a host of players.

Lille midfielder Amadou Onana and Burnley star Maxwel Cornet are reportedly on the agenda for Moyes and head of recruitment Rob Newman with Napoli star Piotr Zielinski also mentioned in parts.

It appears the east Londoners have cast their net far and wide with reliable journalist Jacob Steinberg now sharing news on another possible target.

The Latest: Steinberg makes Brereton-Diaz claim...

Indeed, the reporter claims Brereton Diaz is also being watched by West Ham.

Writing for The Guardian, he states that Moyes and co are 'monitoring' the Rovers forward with there being no sign of the Irons resting on their laurels.

The Verdict: Exciting?

Having scored 22 goals whilst assisting three others last season, regardless of those numbers coming in the Championship, it's clear the Chile international could provide another injection of threat into Moyes' side.

Brereton Diaz, reportedly valued at around £20 million, could be a real one to watch with pundits in the press even tipping him to be an 'exciting signing' for West Ham specifically.

Able to play both out wide and centrally, the forward would come with real versatility for Moyes and we feel West Ham would be wise to take their interest further.
