West Ham challenge Crystal Palace for Cabaye

West Ham United are ready to challenge Crystal Palace for PSG midfielder Yohan Cabaye.

The Daily Mail says the Hammers are looking to strengthen their squad on all fronts this summer as they prepare for Europa League football.

Pedro Obiang was the first of many new signings expected under new boss Slaven Bilic and they are now interested in former Newcastle star Cabaye.

The France international, 29, wants regular first-team football after struggling to impose himself on Laurent Blanc's side following his £23million January 2014 arrival from St James' Park.

Palace, who finished 10th, above West Ham, in the Barclays Premier League last season, are keen on Cabaye with the player admitting earlier this week that a reunion with manager Alan Pardew would appeal to him.
