West Ham United are considering a loan bid for Manchester City defender Nathan Ake.

The Hammers have lost Kurt Zouma until March due to a hamstring injury sustained in the win over Chelsea on Saturday.

Fellow centre-back Angelo Ogbonna has also been ruled out for the season with a knee injury.

The Sunsays West Ham boss David Moyes could target Ake when the transfer window opens next month.

Netherlands international Ake has served as a back-up defender for Pep Guardiola this season.
