West Ham United allegedly may now be able to pick up Stuttgart centre-forward Sasa Kalajdzic on the cheap.
Hammers boss David Moyes has been consistently linked with a move to bring the Austria international to the London Stadium by the likes of The Daily Mail and According to Sport Bild (Print edition, Wednesday March 24th).

The 24-year-old stands at 6ft 7in tall, so it’s easy to see why David Moyes might want to sign him what with the emphasis he places on set-pieces.
The Scot tried and failed to bring the Stuttgart ace to West Ham last summer (The Daily Mail).
And as things stand, the Hammers still have Michail Antonio as our only recognised centre-forward. And let’s be honest here, the 31-year-old isn’t a natural striker either!
It will be vitally important for Moyes to address that particular problem in the summer.
West Ham could sign Sasa Kalajdzic on the cheap
The Hammers could sign the giant 24-year-old hitman for ‘quite a bit less’ than £17 million in the summer transfer window according to a report from Kicker.
We think that Kalajdzic could be a very useful addition for West Ham, especially if we can sign him for somewhere in the region of £10-15 million.
The Austrian has bagged 31 goals and 20 assists in 83 career games to date and he has been capped 11 times by his country (Transfermarkt).
He has missed most of this season due to a serious shoulder in jury but has returned to action recently.
Kalajdzic is very good in the air and he possesses very impressive technique as well.
Standing at 6ft 7in tall, the Austria international would provide West Ham with a great focal point to our attacking play. He would certainly give us a completely different option through the middle.
The fact that we could pick him up for perhaps £7-8 million cheaper than what Stuttgart were demanding for him last summer makes a move to sign him this summer seem like a no-brainer for West Ham.
And we would be more than happy if Kalajdzic rocked up at the London Stadium before the start of next season.
