West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic has reportedly made Juventus striker Simone Zaza a loan target.
Juve head coach Massimiliano Allegri recently insisted that the 24-year-old was not leaving Turin this month.
However, that has not put off the Hammers, who also tried to sign the Italy international in the summer, according to the London Evening Standard.
The report adds, though, that at least one player will have to depart Upton Park before Zaza could arrive.
That might be Mauro Zarate, who has recently been linked with a move to Spanish outfit Malaga.
