West Ham United boss Gianfranco Zola is seeking an off contract striker.
Zola is still without long-term injury victims Luis Boa-Morte and Dean Ashton, though he did sign striker Alessandro Diamanti, from Italian club Livorno, last week.
"Gianluca Nani and Gianfranco Zola are now discussing the possibility of an out of contract striker joining the club, who has been tracked in the past month," said a statement on the club's website.
