West Ham United 'leading race for Serhou Guirassy'

West Ham United have reportedly emerged as the favourites to sign Amiens striker Serhou Guirassy.

Having contributed eight goals and one assist in Ligue 1 this season, Guirassy is attracting attention from the Premier League.

With Amiens said to be prepared to cash in on the 23-year-old, The Sun claims that Brighton & Hove Albion and Tottenham Hotspur are among the clubs monitoring the situation.

However, the report claims that West Ham are the frontrunners to seal a deal for the attacker, who can also play on the left flank.

The report claims that discussions have already been held between the relevant parties ahead of concluding a transfer in the summer.

Much could depend on whether West Ham are able to retain their top-flight status.
