West Ham United have joined Chelsea in their interest for Genoa midfielder Rolando Mandragora.

The London Evening Standard says the 18-year-old is currently on loan at Italian side Pescara, where he has played 12 games since joining on a season-long deal, but is being tracked by the Premier League duo as well as a host of Serie A clubs.

Mandragora, whose best position is as a midfield defensive anchor, will be available for about £7million.

Inter Milan are being touted as being favourites to sign the 18-year-old after Mandragora recently admitted playing at the San Siro would be "special".
