West Ham United have reportedly made an opening offer for AS Roma striker Edin Dzeko.
According to a report from Italian news outlet Calciomercato, the Bosnian international will be on the move from Stadio Olimpico this summer, and the Hammers are among the clubs keen to secure his signature.
Inter Milan are understood to be interested in signing Dzeko, but it is West Ham who have reportedly lodged the first bid in the race for a summer transfer.
Calciomercato reports that Manuel Pellegrini’s side have started with a €10 million offer for the 33-year-old, which is likely to be rendered insufficient as Roma hold firm and demand at least €20 million for the attacker.
Dzeko has not grabbed headlines in Serie A this season but has still produced regularly. He’s found the back of the net seven times in the top flight and has also scored five goals in the Champions League for Roma.
West Ham appear to have a concrete interest in signing the former Manchester City star, but a more significant offer could be required.
