West Ham could turn to former Chelsea loanee Denis Zakaria this summer.
The Juventus midfielder is the subject of real interest from the London-based Premier League team.
The Hammers, who won the Europa Conference League, are in the process of selling captain Declan Rice.
With Manchester City, Arsenal, and Manchester United vying for his signature, Rice is almost certain to move.
Per Fabrizio Romano, Zakaria is one of many options the club has drawn up for replacements.
The Swiss midfielder did have positive moments at Chelsea last term, but also struggled with injuries.
