West Ham target Ivory Coast hitman

West Ham United are considering a surprise swoop for Ivory Coast international Gohi Bi Zoro Cyriac.

The Premier League outfit, who impressively defeated Crystal Palace 3-1 on Saturday, are thought to be monitoring the situation of the Oostende star in the Belgian Pro League this term.

The 25-year-old, who has three international caps to his name, has already scored seven goals in 10 league appearances so far this season.

Cyriac, who only joined Belgian side Oostende this year, made five appearances in Anderlecht’s Champions League campaign last term, including two versus Premier League rivals Arsenal.

Despite sitting prettily in fourth-place; including a free-flowing 20 goals scored from their opening nine league games, Hammers boss Slaven Bilic is still hoping to bolster his attacking ranks during the New Year period.
