Hammers and Pompey contact Kezman

(GSM) – Premier League duo of West Ham United and Portsmouth have reportedly made contact with Paris Saint-Germain striker Mateja Kezman.

The former Chelsea man has recently returned to the French capital after a loan spell at Zenit St Petersburg.

However the 30-year-old striker is thought to be not part of Antoine Kombouare plans.

The Hammers are in the market for strikers after missing out on Ruud van Nistelrooy and Eidur Gudjohnsen and are therefore thought to have made enquiries, despite an imminent deal for Benni McCarthy.

The Hammers’ Premier League relegation rivals Portsmouth are also believed to have approached Kezman with a view to securing additional attacking options.

Any move would come late on transfer deadline day but the 30-year-old would bring experience of England’s top flight.

Kezman played for Chelsea during the 2004/05 season after a £5million move from PSV Eindhoven, although his time with the Blues failed to meet expectations as he scored just four league goals in 24 appearances.
