West Ham United have reportedly been alerted to Sampdoria striker Luis Muriel.

The Daily Mirror is reporting that the Hammers have added the Colombian striker to their summer hit-list.

Muriel, 25, has scored 10 goals and provided nine assists for Samp this season.

It is understood that the former Udinese star has a release clause of £24million.

The East London club is in the market for a new attacker in the summer transfer window and are now being linked with a possible move for the in-demand Muriel, who insists he is happy at the Genoa-based outfit.

“The future? I'm happy at Sampdoria, because we've won two derbies [against their city rivals Genoa] for the first time in 57 years," he said.

“I've had several offers from Juventus, Inter, Milan and Roma in Italy, but also from abroad — in Spain and England."
