West Ham boss Bilic planning swoop for Chelsea striker Remy

West Ham United are being heavily linked with a summer move for Chelsea's Loic Remy.

According to <i>The Express</i>, the Hammers are pondering an £8million move for the French striker following the confirmation of Slaven Bilic as the new manager on Tuesday.

Remy, 28, only joined the Premier League champions from QPR last summer but made just six league starts under Jose Mourinho and is believed to be keen on more regular football.

With West Ham offering Europa League football next term, Remy could be lured across London as Bilic looks to rebuild the squad he has inherited from Sam Allardyce.
