West Ham eyeing Man City fullback Pablo Zabaleta

West Ham are eyeing Manchester City fullback Pablo Zabaleta.

The Daily Mail says the Hammers are among the clubs interested in signing Zabaleta if he leaves the Etihad Stadium this summer.

Hammers boss Slaven Bilic has been alerted to the fact that 32-year-old Zabaleta is currently weighing up his future with his current City deal up at the end of the season.

Pep Guardiola has yet to decide whether the Argentine right-back will get a new contract and the player has also stated he'll make a decision based on his own long-term interests.

Right-back has been a problem for West Ham this season with youngster Sam Byram and ex-Liverpool and Real Madrid defender Alvaro Arbeloa failing to make the position their own.
