West Ham United eye Demba Ba return on loan?

West Ham United are reportedly keen on bringing striker Demba Ba back to Upton Park from Chelsea on a loan deal.

The Senegal international's future at Stamford Bridge could be in doubt due to the arrival of manager Jose Mourinho and the forward's failure to secure a regular starting spot in the Blues team.

The Hammers have begun talks with the West London outfit over signing the striker on a loan agreement, according to The Metro.

Ba, who moved to Chelsea from Newcastle United for £7m in January, spent four months with the Hammers when he moved to England in 2011.
