West Ham set to negotiate Dzeko fee after striker agrees a deal

Roma’s Edin Dzeko has agreed personal terms with West Ham, though the two clubs are yet to agree on a transfer fee for the striker, according to Sport Witness via Italian outlet Calciomercato.

The Hammers reportedly had a €10million bid turned down for the Bosnian in the January transfer window, with the Serie A side looking for double West Ham’s initial offer. 

A move to the London Stadium would see Dzeko reunite with former boss Manuel Pellegrini, who the 33-year-old played under during his time at Manchester City.

The striker’s current contract is set to expire at the end of next season, and the Hammers have reportedly agreed to match the wages he is earning at Roma should they reach a deal for the forward. 

Fellow Premier League side Everton are also said to be interested in a move for the Bosnia-Herzegovina international, while Roma’s Serie A rivals Inter Milan are another side who are reportedly keen on a move for the striker. 

Dzeko has scored just seven goals in 25 appearances in Serie A this season, though the forward did impress for Roma in the Champions League with five goals in six appearances.
