West Ham co-owner David Sullivan says they're close to landing a new striker.
Slaven Bilic's side have made no secret of their determination to bolster their front line this summer but the task has proven to be a difficult one.
"We are very close to bringing in a very promising striker who has scored goals regularly in his career in competitive leagues," Sullivan told the club's official website.
"He will need time to settle, like every new player, but we are confident he will add a lot to the squad."
