West Ham focus attention on Toulouse striker Ben Yedder as Bacca deal drags on

West Ham United are continuing to monitor Toulouse striker Ben Yedder, according to the Daily Mirror.

The Hammers are actively looking for a striker in the transfer market and are currently involved in talks with AC Milan's Carlos Bacca.

However, Slaven Bilic's Hammers are yet to convince the Colombia international to move to Olympic Stadium after prolonged talks.

Bacca still remains their number one priority, but West Ham have also expressed an interest in Yedder.

The 25-year-old, who scored 17 goals in Ligue 1 last season, has just one year left on his contract and is expected to be available for around £8million.
