West Ham could be set to move for giant Genk striker Paul Onuachu with reports that his agent is in London for talks over a possible move. The 27-year-old has been with Genk for two seasons scoring 33 times from 38 outings to help the Belgiums finish second in the table.

Earlier in the summer he was linked to Arsenal but now the Hammers are said to be interested.

Own Goal Nigeria are reporting that both West Ham and Brighton are in with a shout of landing the forward.

And the website goes on to say that his representative will talk to both clubs over personal terms. It will be up to the clubs to negotiate a transfer fee for a player valued at around £22m.

The report has all the hallmarks of an agent promoting their client however that is not to say there could be an element of truth in it.

David Moyes is is the market for a striker so you never know.
