Juventus have reportedly pulled out of a deal to loan Simone Zaza to West Ham United.

The Hammers are keen on bringing in a forward before the transfer window closes after Enner Valencia was ruled out for an extended spell due to an injury sustained earlier this month.

Zaza was believed to be one of their top targets, and Sky Sports News claims that a £1.4m season-long loan deal with the option to make the move permanent for £11.5m next summer was on the cards.

However, the report suggests that the Serie A champions have cancelled the deal and it remains unclear whether West Ham will abandon the move.

Zaza scored 10 goals in all competitions for Sassuolo last season before Juventus used their option to sign him earlier in the summer.
