And the striker could be available for around £13-17 million (Area Napoli).
Napoli and Fiorentina allegedly want to sign the striker as well.
Hammers boss David Moyes must add some more quality competition and cover for Michail Antonio at the London Stadium.
The big problem for the West Ham boss, however, is that funds are tight at the London Stadium.
Moyes will have to be thrifty in his summer business.
West Ham chasing Boulaye Dia again
The Hammers were persistently linked with a move to sign the 24-year-old Senegalese hitman in January (Sport.fr).
And we are back in for him according to Area Napoli. The Italian media outlet claims that the West Ham owners are willing to sign Dia, with Stade Reims demanding a minimum of £13 million for his services.
That seems like great value for the Hammers.
He is powerful, has explosive pace and is a real menace for opposing defenders.
Dia has enjoyed a fine campaign with Reims, scoring 16 goals in 37 games (Transfermarkt).
