Marseille are reportedly prepared to let Kostas Mitroglou leave the club in January, with West Ham believed to be among the potential suitors for the striker.
The Hammers have been recently linked with a move for the experienced Greek striker, who has seen his first-team chances limited at Marseille this season.
Mitroglou has made only four starts for his side in Ligue 1, prompting claims that he could be on his way out of Marseille when the January transfer window opens.
According to claims from L’Equipe, as cited by talkSPORT, Marseille are ready to trim their squad at the next opportunity, with the team likely to miss out on qualification to the Europa League knockout rounds.
This would mean that Marseille have less games to contend with after the turn of the year, thereby indicating that fringe players will not be necessary to provide them with depth.
It’s reported by talkSPORT that this will come as a boost to West Ham, who continue to eye former Fulham striker Mitroglou.
