West Ham are chasing Sevilla midfielder Franco Vazquez.

New Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini is seeking to add more guile to his midfield and Vazquez is on his radar, says TMW.

Talks have commenced between West Ham and Vazquez with a confidence in London of a deal being struck.

Vazquez, 29, moved to Sevilla two years ago from Palermo for €15m.

While Argentine born, Vazquez has been capped by Italy.
