West Ham pushing on with pursuit of Toulouse forward Braithwaite

West Ham United have made a £3million offer for Toulouse's Martin Braithwaite, according to reports.

The Daily Mail is of the belief that the Hammers are keen to lure the Danish striker to East London this summer.

Slaven Bilic is after a new striker and after reportedly having massive bids for the likes of Alexandre Lacazette and Michy Batshuayi rejected, have lowered their sights on the much more affordable Braithwaite.

Sunderland are looking to sign Diafra Sakho for £10m and it is understood that the Hammers will use some of that money on Braithwaite before targeting a big-name striker ahead of their summer move to the Olympic Stadium.
