West Ham still pondering bid for Fiorentina striker Mario Gomez

West Ham United are still believed to be pondering a £7million bid for Fiorentina striker Mario Gomez, according to the Daily Mirror.

The Hammers have reportedly agreed a £26million fee for AC Milan striker Carlos Bacca, and he remains their primary target.

However, the Colombia international has stalled on the move as he would prefer to play for a Champions League club, and the Hammers have been forced to look for alternative options.

31-year-old German international Gomez, who spent last season on loan at Besiktas, has also been linked with Borussia Dortmund.
