West Ham United have identified Loic Remy as a transfer target after a move for Duvan Zapata fell through.
The Hammers will be without Andy Carroll for the start of the season, and are desperate to add to their attacking options.
According to the Daily Star, Sam Allardyce will now make a bid for the Queens Park Rangers striker, who impressed in the Premier League last season despite the club's relegation.
QPR admitted this week that they could sell the Frenchman, but only for the right price.
It is thought that Newcastle United are also interested in signing Remy.
