West Ham hold further talks with Racing Club striker Gustavo Bou

West Ham United have continued discussions with Racing Club's Gustavo Bou.

According to the Daily Mail, Hammers representatives are in Argentina this week to keep working on a deal for the 26-year-old striker.

Bou has netted 19 goals for Racing this season and is seen by Slaven Bilic as an attacker how could bring plenty of value to his side as they prepare to move to the Olympic Stadium this summer.

The former River Plate forward is available for around £9million and appears on a striker wishlist which also includes Marseille's Michy Batshuayi, Manchester City's Wilfried Bony, Liverpool's Christian Benteke, Aston Villa's Jordan Ayew and Bournemouth's Callum Wilson.
