Lyon have admitted that Bafetimbi Gomis could be heading to West Ham United when the transfer window reopens next month, the Metro understands.
The Ligue 1 side have hinted that they have already received an offer for the 28 year old from the Hammers, who are desperate to add more firepower to their goal shy squad.
Before Saturday’s 3-0 win over listless Fulham, Sam Allardyce’s men had netted just nine times in twelve league games.
Their current selection of strikers include record signing Andy Carroll, who is yet to appear this season as he struggles to recover from a long-term foot problem while fellow forwards Ricardo Vaz Te, Modibo Maiga, Mladen Petric and the recently re-signed Carlton Cole have mustered just three goals between them.
They make the short trip to fellow strugglers Crystal Palace this evening, and can be backed at 7/5 to get the three points that could lift them as high as eleventh place with the eighteen other sides in the division not playing until tomorrow.
