West Ham United join race for Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi?

A report claims that Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi will be offered a January escape route by West Ham United, who are eager to bring in more firepower.

West Ham United are reportedly the latest side to have shown an interest in signing Mauro Icardi from Inter Milan following his high-profile falling-out with the club's ultras.

The Argentina international is a figure of hate at San Siro after claiming in his autobiography that he would bring over 100 criminals from his homeland to 'kill members of the Curva Nord'.

Inter have made attempts to play down the feud, which reached boiling point when the skipper was booed by his own fans when missing a penalty recently, while girlfriend Wanda Nara was the latest to claim that the 23-year-old will not be leaving the Italian capital.

According to The Sun, however, West Ham boss Slaven Bilic is ready to test the Nerazzurri's resolve by tabling a bid of around £25m in the New Year, as he looks to strengthen his attacking ranks.

It was claimed last week that Paris Saint-Germain are also interested in signing Icardi, who has six goals in 11 appearances so far this season.
