West Ham plot move for Wilfried Bony

West Ham United are hopeful that a loan deal to sign Wilfried Bony can be agreed before the end of the transfer window. Bony has spent the last two campaigns with Man City but is struggling for regular first team football.

An injury to Andre Ayew and Andy Carroll means that Bony is wanted as a long term replacement for both and City coach Pep Guardiola is ready to listen to any offers for the Ivorian striker.

Chinese Super League clubs have also expressed interest in the striker but it is West Ham United who are favourites to secure the striker's coveted signature.

With two years remaining on his contract, Bony is known to be open to a move elsewhere.
