West Ham United are said to want both Said Benrahma and Joshua King in a double swoop, by the London Evening Standard.

West Ham are thought to be closing in on bringing in Benrahma from Brentford.

But West Ham are eager to strengthen their attack with not one, but two attacking signings before the domestic transfer deadline.

Benrahma would add skill and creativity to West Ham’s front-line, while King would add speed and versatility.

And it is thought that David Moyes would like to sign both players in the next week.

The double deal would hand West Ham an enviable set of attacking options for the campaign ahead.

The Hammers have utilised Pablo Fornals, Michail Antonio and Jarrod Bowen as their first choice front three this term, and they have all performed well.

But if West Ham are successful in bringing both Benrahma and King to the club soon then they would have serious competition for places in the forward positions.
