According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Simone Zaza has accepted the offer to join West Ham United.
The Hammers have been on the hunt for a striker all summer long as Slaven Bilic looked to improve his forward options.
He appeared to have solved the issue with a £20 million for Andre Ayew from Swansea City, but the player picked up an injury in the opening day loss to Chelsea that has ruled him out for four months.

That was a major blow to Bilic, especially with Andy Carroll and Diafra Sakho also on the treatment table.
This week saw them returning with a bid for Simone Zaza, with Gianluca di Marzio reporting they were eying a loan move for the Italian.

They also report that he has agreed to the move after they offered him £2.5 million-a-year in wages, equalling around £52,000-per-week.
