West Ham United and Everton could take the striker on loan with a view to a permanent deal.
RB Leipzig striker Davie Selke is a January loan target for West Ham United and Everton, according to the Sun.
Selke made the shock switch from Werder Bremen to Leipzig in 2015 and scored 10 goals en route to the second division title last season.

However, the 21-year-old has started just once for the Bundesliga high flyers since their promotion, with a tactical tweak said to be behind his lack of action.
West Ham and Everton do not appear to be deterred by his lack of action, though, and could beef up their attacks with six-foot-three Selke next month, with a view to signing him permanently in the summer.
Everton are heavily reliant on main striker Romelu Lukaku, while West Ham’s summer recruits Simone Zaza and Jonathan Calleri have failed to add value to the Hammers’ attack.

The report states that Swansea City will rival the pair for Selke’s signature, although their precarious position at the bottom of the Premier League could leave their rivals in a straight head-to-head battle.
