West Ham United are reportedly negotiating for Patrik Hrosovsky.

Patrik Hrosovsky of Viktoria Plzen looks on during the Group G match of the UEFA Champions League between Real Madrid  and Viktoria Plzen at Bernabeu on October 23, 2018 in Madrid, Spain.

According to AS, West Ham United are in talks about a deal to sign Viktoria Plzen midfielder Patrik Hrosovsky for just £4million.

The Hammers brought in Samir Nasri on a free transfer at the beginning of the month, but most of the speculation has surrounded potential departures.

Marko Arnautovic and Javier Hernandez have been targeted, but Manuel Pellegrini and Mario Husillos may now have a new arrival in the pipeline.

AS report that West Ham are in talks to sign Viktoria Plzen ace Hrosovsky for just €4.5million (£4million), in what would be a bargain swoop.

The 26-year-old is also wanted by Stuttgart though, so West Ham may have to do a deal quickly if they want to avoid being gazumped by the Bundesliga side.

Hrosovsky has picked up two goals and two assists this season, and has impressed in the Champions League having scored against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in October.

A Slovakian international with 22 caps to his name, Hrosovsky can play as a central midfielder or in a holding role, and would provide additional depth in the middle of the park.

Pellegrini has seen Carlos Sanchez and Jack Wilshere suffer injury problems, so Hrosovsky can give him another option alongside Declan Rice, Mark Noble and Pedro Obiang if a deal goes through.
