West Ham join Leicester in the hunt for Swiss ace

West Ham United are reportedly interested in Leicester City target Gokhan Inler.

Despite the Foxes having already agreed a fee of £3.1m for the Switzerland midfielder, the Napoli man is believed to not be keen on a summer move to the King Power Stadium.

The 31-year-old, who has 83 international caps, scored one goal 33 appearances in all competitions for the Serie A side last season.

Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri is keen for Inler to replace Esteban Cambiasso at the club, meanwhile Hammers manager Slaven Bilic is seeking alternatives to Alex Song after struggling to thrash out a permanent move for the Barcelona midfielder.

However, the Premier League duo face stiff competition from a host of European clubs, including Fiorentina, Hamburg, Schalke and Werder Bremen.
