WEST Ham have reportedly made an approach for FC Viktoria Plzen striker Rafiu Durosinmi.
The Nigerian hitman was courted by Wolves in 2023 and later failed a medical at German club Eintracht Frankfurt.
Durosinmi has been in solid form in the Czech Republic this season, scoring 13 goals in all competitions so far from 30 appearances.
Reports in England claim Premier League strugglers West Ham have bid £12 million for the 22-year-old, who joined Plzen for €850,000 in January 2023 from fellow Czech club Karvina.
Durosinmi is out of contract at the end of this season but Plzen are believed to be keen on keeping him.
The towering Durosinmi is also being tracked by Benfica, Lazio and Stuttgart ahead of the upcoming January transfer window.
Two years ago, the powerful frontman suffered ACL tears in both knees and missed 14 months of action before marking his return with a brace and an assist against Sparta Prague.
West Ham boss Nuno Espirito Santo is targeting extra firepower in attack at the London Stadium in a bid to save the club’s season after Germany striker Niclas Fullkrug was loaned to AC Milan.
West Ham are currently third from bottom in the Premier League, and are five points from safety.
