West Ham United want permanent deal for Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart?

West Ham United are reportedly considering signing Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart on a permanent basis.

Hart has spent the current campaign on loan at the Hammers, and the England international has gone on to make 22 starts for the club in all competitions.

The 31-year-old has made a number of high-profile errors - including in the 1-1 draw with Stoke City on Monday night - but according to The Mirror, the East London outfit remain keen on an extended stay for the stopper.

Shortly after David Moyes's arrival in November, Adrian was preferred between the sticks but Hart has since reclaimed his spot in the first team.

Hart still has a year remaining on his contract at the Etihad Stadium, but City are likely to be open to doing a deal with West Ham should they firm up their interest.
