West Ham United nearing Simone Zaza loan deal?

West Ham United are understood to be closing in on a loan deal for Juventus striker Simone Zaza.

West Ham United have reportedly edged closer to signing Juventus striker Simone Zaza on loan.

The Italy international, 24, joined the Serie A champions from Sassuolo in July for nearly £13m.

Zaza is understood to be keen on finding a club that will provide him with first-team action as he looks to seal a place in the Azzurri squad for Euro 2016.

West Ham are currently negotiating a £1.4m loan fee with Juve, while they will have to pay £11.5m if they want to sign him permanently at the end of the temporary deal, according to Sky Sports News.

Zaza has scored one goal in five appearances for Italy.
