Striker Jonathan Calleri has said that he is expecting to join West Ham United in the near future.
The Deportivo Maldonado player has just completed a loan spell at Sao Paolo but he appears to be on the brink of another move after admitting that he had undergone successful talks with the Hammers.
The 23-year-old told ESPN: "I will play at West Ham. It is now closed. I wanted to play in Europe. I just need the work visa."
Calleri, who has been called up to the Argentina squad for the Olympic Games, had previously been linked with both Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur.
