West Ham on cusp of Matri deal?

AC Milan striker Alessandro Matri looks set join West Ham United on a season-long loan deal.

It was reported earlier this week that the Hammers had made a loan offer for the talented marksman, which was swiftly accepted by the Rossoneri.

Sky Sports News now confirms that the Italy international has agreed to join the East London outfit, and the move could be finalized during the day.

The 31-year-old spent last season on loan with Genoa and Juventus.
