Nene is expected in London today for a West Ham United medical.
The former PSG and AS Monaco attacker is a free agent after leaving Al Gharafa.
The London Evening Standard says he is today expected to undergo a medical at West Ham prior to signing an initial short-term deal to the end of the season.
West Ham turned to the 33-year-old Brazilian following a knee injury sustained by Andy Carroll who will be out for the rest of the season.
