West Ham in for Gervinho?

West Han United are in talks to sign former Arsenal striker Gervinho, according to reports.

The Ivory Coast international struggled to cement his place in the Gunners first-team and shipped out to Italian giants Roma on a permanent basis in 2013.

Gervinho has since then impressed with the Capital outfit scoring goals in important games of the club.

According to Metro, Hammers boss Slaven Bilic is keen on offering a second chance to Gervinho as he looks to make his mark in his first season in charge at Upton Park.

West Ham United visit the Emirates on the opening day of the Premier League season.
