Juventus defender Angelo Ogbonna is close to sealing a move to the Premier League with West Ham United, according to an Italian source.
The Italian international is considered as surplus to requirements at Juve, and is expected to seek fresh pastures elsewhere in the summer.
The Hammers are understood to have agreed £7.1m up front with a further £1.4m in add-ons, Tuttosport reports.
However, it is added that the East Londoners could still face stiff competition from league rivals Everton who are monitoring the transfer proceedings.
Ogbonna has played over 40 games for the Italian champions since his move from Torino in 2013.
