West Ham United are allegedly in talks to sign Stuttgart striker Sasa Kalajdzic in the summer transfer window.
That’s according to Daily Express journalist Ryan Taylor who claims that the Hammers could face competition from the likes of Manchester United and Ajax for the 25-year-old striker’s signature.

The Hammers’ need for a top-class striker this summer is clear and obvious for everyone to see. We absolutely cannot rely upon Michail Antonio to be our only centre-forward once again next season.
If West Ham are to make some real progress over the next year or so, Moyes has to sign an elite forward.
And it seems as though that’s exactly what the Scot has planned…
West Ham in talks to sign Sasa Kalajdzic
The Hammers are in discussions to bring the Austria International to the London Stadium this summer according to a report from Daily Express journalist Ryan Taylor.
We think that the 15-capped Austria International would be an exceptional addition for West Ham in the summer transfer window.
The 25-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).
Sasa Kalajdzic joining West Ham would make us a real threat in the final third next season.
We think that Kalajdzic could be a very useful addition for West Ham, especially if we sign him for somewhere in the region of £15-18 million.
The Austrian has bagged 36 goals and 21 assists in 92 career games to date (Transfermarkt).
He missed most of last season due to a serious shoulder injury but he returned to action recently. And he bagged six goals and two assists in 15 Bundesliga outings last term (Transfermarkt).
Kalajdzic is extremely 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.
If West Ham are in talks to sign the Austrian striker, this should be a fairly easy one to get done with Stuttgart allegedly ready to sell according to Sport BILD journalist Marcel Reif.
