West Ham United are eyeing Fiorentina defender Nikola Milenkovic.

Hammers boss David Moyes will instead push on with his initial interest in Milenkovic, 23, who is valued at £14m by Fiorentina.

The Serbia international only has one year left on his deal with the Serie A club, which is why he is available at such a knockdown price.

Milenkovic is thought to be keen on a move to West Ham, despite interest earlier this summer from Juventus and Tottenham.

Moyes will then focus on landing a new striker, says The Sun.

Tammy Abraham has been linked to The Hammers but Arsenal could look to hijack a potential deal.

Moyes is also trying to persuade West Brom to loan Brazilian attacker Matheus Pereira before a permanent transfer.
