The agent of Reims striker Boulaye Dia has confirmed talks with West Ham United.

Dia is seen at West Ham as a replacement for Sebastien Haller, who has just signed for Ajax.

Federic Guerra told Telefoot: "We talked a lot last month with West Ham. However, we have not moved forward. He is a player that interests them. The question this winter is whether by choosing West Ham or another club, we do not exclude many other clubs this summer.

"We are in these questions. If it is better to leave now or this summer. Of course it is a security to accept West Ham this winter but it is also to close doors for this summer. Italian clubs are interested, in Spain, in Germany. To choose is to give up, so if we choose West Ham, we give up on others."
