West Ham representatives will be in Italy tomorrow to launch discussions over a move for Genoa defender Armando Izzo.
According to Football Italia, the club’s intermediaries will fly in to try and find a breakthrough in negotiations.
The centre back has also been linked with a move to Sassuolo, but West Ham have reportedly jumped to the front of the queue.
The 26-year old made 16 Serie A appearances last season, as he was previously given a lengthy 18-month ban for involvement in a betting scandal, but was later cleared on an appeal.
Including bonus payments, Izzo should cost the club around €10milliion.
