West Ham are pushing to close a deal for Inter Milan striker Gabriel Barbosa.
The Mirror says the 22-year-old has been offered to the Irons on loan until the end of the season.
Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini is willing to listen as the club have fitness concerns surrounding their strike force.
Marko Arnautovic was taken off after scoring just 20 minutes into the club's FA Cup Third Round win over Birmingham on Saturday. Andy Carroll, who netted the second, still has doubts surrounding his long-term fitness.
Barbosa, nicknamed Gabigol, failed to settle at Inter and had a disappointing loan spell at Benfica during the 2017-18 campaign. He has regained his confidence after netting 18 times in 35 games during a loan spell back at his first club Santos last year.
