Stoke City are ready to cut loose on-loan Manchester City striker Wilfried Bony.
The Sun says West Ham are leading a three-way fight to land Bony this summer.
Bony has sparked a summer transfer scrap after getting frozen out at Stoke and Manchester City.
West Brom are also interested in the proven Premier League goalscorer coming on the market at the end of the season.
And Everton are also monitoring the 28-year-old as they assess options in case Romelu Lukaku leaves the club.
All three are weighing up moves for the Ivory Coast international in the belief he can recapture the form that took him from Swansea to City.
Bony was the top scorer in the calendar year for 2014 and earned a move to the Etihad but has been frustrated since.
