West Ham United has joined Watford and West Bromwich Albion in the pursuit of Montpellier attacker Steve Mounie.

Mounie was one of the star performers in the French Ligue 1 last season, scoring 14 goals for a struggling Montpellier side.

As a result of his exploits, the interested parties will reportedly have to pay around £13m for the Benin international.

After injuries to Andy Carroll and Diafra Sakho last season, Hammers boss Slaven Bilic is said to be keen on investing in his attacking options this summer.
