West Ham are lining up a Â£20m bid for Roma striker Edin Dzeko.

The reports suggests the Champions League chasing Hammers are keen to bring in a marquee signing as they prepare to move to the Olympic Stadium, and Dzeko has been identified as a potential target.

The former Manchester City striker moved from the Etihad to join Roma in a permanent deal last summer and has scored nine goals in all competitions for the Italian club so far this season.

Assume this is just another crazy Brentwood gazette thing. where on earth do they get these from. Drunk guys in the Nags head?

this one has been around before personally I think he's a good player that would regularly for us

but again ssn is saying we want one from benteke, lacazette or batschuayi

after what sullivan said about strikers we will be linked with everyone

if it was up to me I'd like to see us have a real go for zaza from juve.

Hope not. I think dzekos a bit of a donkey to be honest and approaching the end of his career. 20m would be way overpriced for his age and ability.

45 goals in 76 internationals wouldn't call him a donkey lol and he's 30 more than young enough for 3 or 4 decent seasons I would've thought.

Personally I'd rather go for some of the other names we've been linked with instead of Dzeko. Bony is also someone I'd look at.

International records don't always mean a lot. There's plenty of strikers who have great records for there country but don't have the same club record eg. Peter crouch, David healy, stern John.
So would you pay 20m for a 30 year old? If so I'm glad you ain't in charge of transfers.

I personally want to see West Ham sign two forwards in the Summer. Ideally someone that can play out wide if needed and an out and out forward.

There are a few versatile forward options I'd like us to look at.

Alexander Lacazette
Mohamed Salah
Kevin Volland
Ahmed Musa
Andre Ayew
Paul George-Ntep
Ousmane Dembele

Then for the out and out forward options I'd like us to look at.

Javier Hernandez
Wilfred Bony
Cristian Benteke
Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Mischy Batshuayi

I'd also like to see us go all out for Nicholas N'Koulou (centre back playing for Marseille) and Sofiane Feghouli (right winger playing for Valencia) . Both have been linked to some big names already as they're Both available on a free, but I think we should be aiming to sign quality players.

50 goals from 130 man citeh appearances many as a sub is still pretty good I'd say and 66 from 111 in wolf's burg I think proves he can score at the top level and if I thought he could fire us into champions league then he would be worth every penny of 20 million but let's face it he would cost nearer to 10 million anyway and I'd rather spend it on a 50 year old than benteke lol

plus if you see what I read I already said I'd prefer zaza.

Lol agree on benteke. Defo not keen on him.
Dzekos record was good at wolfsburg but that was a long time ago now. I think we need to look to someone younger personally and maybe zaza could be ideal.
If there's any chance of us luring lacazette then that would be my preference as he's got pace and would be able to play across the front line.

I think lacazette would be a great signing but I think there could well be a few clubs in for him so this might be difficult to pull off

don forget we have the euros this summer swell which could well throw a couple more names in the hat aswell!

Yh lacazette is a long shot. But you never know, I'm sure payet was as well last season. It'll all depend on where we finish the season. It'll be an interesting summer for sure.

I think payet is key to this transfer as much as our new stadium which will attract top players we are 3-4 players short of challenging for top honours next season, I also think billic could be touted for a top job next year but I don't think he'd leave as his heart is 100% west ham let's spank the eagles saturday COYI.
