Jonathan Calleri and Simone Zaza have both struggled at West Ham United so far this season.

Slaven Bilic has suggested at his latest press conference that Jonathan Calleri does have a future at West Ham United, but Simone Zaza does not.

Calleri and Zaza were both bought to West Ham last summer, but the pair have made a disastrous start to life at the London Stadium.

Zaza was expected to be West Ham’s main man up-front, but he failed to ever look up to standard required.

Calleri, meanwhile, has been used more sparingly – but during his time on the pitch he has struggled.

With the January transfer window now open, there have been question marks raised about their duo’s future.

And although Bilic has played down speculation about Calleri leaving, the Croatian boss does admit that he has run out of patience with Zaza.

Zaza is still officially a West Ham player for the time being, with his loan from Juventus not set to expire until the end of the season.

West Ham are now hoping that a Serie A side will agree to take the Italian international off their hands.
