West Ham's search for a striker this January transfer window is gathering pace with the Hammers reportedly keen on Marseille forward Bamba Dieng, according to reports in France.
Dieng is currently on international duty with Senegal where his goal on Tuesday helped his country into the last-16 of the Africa Cup of Nations.
The 21-year-old is a versatile forward who is equally comfortable through the middle and in a wide attacking role, one he fulfilled for Senegal against Cape Verde when replacing Liverpool's Sadio Mane in the second half.
