West Ham United risk missing out on Barcelona midfielder Alex Song.

Corriere dello Sport says AC Milan are ready to step in and snap up the Cameroon international.

Song underwent a West Ham medical last week, but no deal with the Hammers has been struck. He is currently training on his own.

Milan are now exploring the prospect of taking Song from Barca this week.

The midfielder enjoyed a successful last season on-loan at the Boleyn Ground.
