West Ham's striker search has led them to West Brom's Salomon Rondon and reports say an offer is in the pipeline.

Hammers boss Slaven Bilic is looking for a proven Premier League forward but has so far not had much luck in the transfer window so could turn to Baggies frontman Rondon.

The Venezuela international made a decent start to life in England with the Baggies, scoring 10 goals in all competitions in the 2015/16 season, before struggling in front of goal somewhat last season, managing just eight goals.

Rondon was linked with a move to Chinese side Tianjin Quanjian in January but Albion boss Tony Pulis wants him to stay and it's thought he would not entertain any bids under £25million for the 27-year-old, who joined from Zenit St Petersburg for around £12million two years ago.

Bilic could test the water with an initial offer of around £20million and it's believed Rondon would be open to the possibility of a switch to London.

Manchester City striker Wilfried Bony has also been linked with the Hammers in recent days as Bilic's transfer search continues.
