West Ham near deal for Barcelona midfielder Song

West Ham United are set to complete the signing of Barcelona midfielder Alex Song.

Song, who has been linked with several other clubs in the Premier League this summer, looks set to remain with the Hammers after spending last season on loan at Upton Park.

The 27-year old dropped a major hint as to where his future lies, posting a photo of himself on Instagram in West Ham training shorts.

Song, who spent six successful years with Arsenal before departing to Barcelona, looks set to return to the English capital in a deal that is believed to be in the region of £5million.
