West Ham United are set to beat Swansea City for Eidur Gudjohnsen.
The Sunday Mirror says the 32-year-old Iceland striker had a one-year contract offer rescinded following Mark Hughes's departure from Craven Cottage.
Swansea tried to take Gudjohnsen to the Liberty Stadium and the former Barcelona and Chelsea star was on the verge of agreeing terms until the Hammers intervened.
Gudjohnsen's arrival is likely to put more pressure on West Ham to compromise over their demands for Scott Parker.
