West Ham United are moving for Strasbourg striker Habib Diallo.

The Hammers face losing centre-forward Gianluca Scamacca to AS Roma this summer.

And Diallo is being considered as a replacement for the Italy international.

L'Equipe says West Ham have made a bid of €17m for Diallo, 28.

However, the bid is said to have been rejected by the French club, who are demanding significantly more for the striker, who has a deal to 2025.

Chelsea's umbrella company Blue Co bought a majority share in Strasbourg last month.
