Hammers get their Zaza answer

West Ham were tonight told they had no chance of signing Simone Zaza on loan

ClaretandHugh reported earlier this week that the Hammers wanted him on a season long deal but that Juvntus want a permnent deal and have named a price of £25 million.

That is too rich for the Hammers blood and with Zaza looking for £100k a week it always looked a remote possibilility the Italy international would arrive at the London Stadim.

And tonight the player’s agent has made it clear there is no possibility of the striker joining the Irons on anything other than a permanent deal.

His father Antonio who also acts as his agent told  Calciomercato: “West Ham have been following him for a long time, it’s a great club but I have to stress one thing: if Simone leaves Juventus, he’ll only do it outright. We’re not going to accept a loan.”

Meanwhile there are new reports this evening the Hammers are attempting to bring in Loic Remy on a season-long loan deal.

Sky sources are claiming we have opened talks with Chelsea
