​West Ham challenge Arsenal to Zenit star Azmoun

West Ham United are interested in signing Zenit St Petersburg striker Sardar Azmoun.

The attacker has been on the radar of Arsenal for some time as well.

Their boss Mikel Arteta recently spoke with ex-teammate Andrei Arshavin to get a rundown on Azmoun.

Area Napoliclaims the Hammers also want to bring the player to the Premier League.

He would reportedly cost £22.5million.

Azmoun has 14 goals and seven assists this season.

He would likely have an easier path to a starting spot at the Hammers, while he would have to compete with some top class attackers if he went to Arsenal.
