​West Ham set to return for negotiations with Benfica over Darwin Nunez

West Ham United are making a big push to try and land Benfica forward Darwin Nunez.

The attacker is the latest to be linked to the Hammers, as manager David Moyes is determined to secure a top-class forward in the summer.

According to Fabrizio Romano, via his Here We Go podcast, Moyes' team put in a £50 million January bid, but it was rejected by Benfica.

The Portuguese giants want an even larger fee for the 22-year-old Uruguay international.

The attacker is drawing attention from the likes of Manchester United, who will also be on the lookout for forwards this summer.
