# West Ham target Babacar’s agent arrives in England

Agent of West Ham target Khouma Babacar is in England to discuss personal terms for his client at several Premier League clubs, according to Anthony Vickers of [Gazette Live](https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/middlesbrough-step-up-striker-search-11580508).

The North East-based news outlet say Middlesbrough, Everton and West Ham hold an interest in signing Babacar, but cannot confirm whether these three clubs are who the player’s agent is meeting with.

Italian source [Tuttomercatoweb](https://www.tuttomercatoweb.com/serie-a/esclusiva-tmw-fiorentina-babacar-e-il-futuro-ci-pensa-anche-l-everton-841210) were the first to accredit the Hammers with an interest in Babacar, stating the Senegalese forward could be available for £10million this summer – a fee West Ham are capable of paying.

The 23-year-old netted seven times in 24 appearances for Fiorentina last season and has three years left to run on his current contract at the club having been there since he was 15.

Meanwhile, Juventus are ready to accept an offer from [Wolfsburg](https://readbundesliga.com/) for another West Ham striker target, Simone Zaza, according to Calciomercato (via [Football Italia](https://www.football-italia.net/86921/juventus-accept-zaza-offer)).
