West Ham are preparing a bid in the region of £15 million to Juventus for striker Simone Zaza.

Wolfsburg and others are also interested in Zaza.

Juventus are holding out for €30 million for Zaza.

Zaza, who came off the bench in Italy’s 1-0 win against Sweden and is likely to feature in their final Group E match against the Republic of Ireland, has distanced himself from the speculation, and said this week that he hopes to remain in Italy.

“I’ll assess my future after the Euros, but I hope to remain in Turin,” he said. “I feel happy on a personal level, but not 100% because I think I can give more. I’m enjoying these Euros, I’m concentrated, fired-up and I hope to do well.”
