West Ham United 'consider loan move for Manchester United's Wilfried Zaha'

West Ham United are reportedly pondering an approach for Manchester United's new signing Wilfried Zaha on a loan basis.

The England Under-21 international finalised a switch to Old Trafford in January, but has yet to play a game for the Premier League champions due to finishing the season on loan at former club Crystal Palace.

While Zaha is expected to join up with the Red Devils for pre-season following the Young Lions' disappointing U21 Euro 2013 campaign, the Hammers are considering a loan swoop, according to The Metro.

West Ham manager Sam Allardyce is thought to be hopeful that he can convince new United boss David Moyes that Zaha will gain vital Premier League experience at Upton Park.
