West Ham are reportedly ready to make an offer for the Liverpool flop, Mario Balotelli.

The story comes after West Ham boss Slaven Bilic confirmed that Andy Carroll has joined the list of injured attacking players alongside Lanzini.

After a poor first season with Liverpool, the Italian was sent out on a season-long loan with his former club AC Milan. His return to the Rossoneri has not been successful however as injuries have restricted his appearances to a total of just four.

The offer appears to be in the region of around £10 million despite the controversy that still surrounds the 25-year-old's career.

It is also reported that Nikica Jelavic has been transfer listed in order to fund the move.
