West Ham United are eyeing Zenit St Petersburg striker Yuri Alberto.

UOL says the Hammers are lining up a bid for the Brazil international.

The striker, 21, is currently the subject of a swap offer from Corinthians.

However, West Ham are aiming to keep Yuri Alberto in Europe with a cash offer for Zenit.

Yuri Alberto scored six goals and provided four assists in 15 games for Zenit in all competitions last season. The striker's contract with the Russian club is valid until June 30, 2027.
