West Ham United have been linked with Khouma Babacar of Fiorentina in the January transfer window.
It has been reported by the British tabloid that West Ham manager David Moyes wants to sign Babacar on loan for the rest of the season.
Fiorentina, though, according to the report, want to sell the 24-year-old striker on a permanent deal and want £15 million as transfer fee.
The Hammers are not the only club from England who are claimed to be interested in signing Babacar in the January transfer window.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Crystal Palace - who are struggling for survival in the Premier League at the moment just like West Ham - are also interested in the Senegal international and are preparing a bid (click here to read more).

During the 2016-17 season, the striker scored 10 goals and provided one assist in 13 league starts for Fiorentina, according to WhoScored.
