West Ham are in talks to sign Bournemouth winger Josh King before next week's EFL deadline, claims The Daily Telegraph.
The transfer window for Premier League clubs to sign from abroad closed on Monday but they can still buy players from the Championship and below until October 16.
After selling Grady Diangana to West Brom and loaning Felipe Anderson to FC Porto, David Moyes wants West Ham to use the Championship to sign another winger.
Said Benrahma has been linked to West Ham already this summer but his wage demands, coupled with Brentford's high valuation are off-putting for all Premier League sides.
The Hammers have instead reached out to King's representatives regarding a potential £10m move to the London stadium.
King, who was subject to an approach from former club Manchester United in January, has entered the final 12 months of his current Bournemouth deal.
The Norway international has made it clear he doesn't want to stay at the club after their relegation from the Premier League last season.
At risk of losing King on a free next summer, Bournemouth are keen to offload the 28-year-old before next week's deadline.
King's stock was at an all-time high during the 2016/17 campaign after scoring 16 goals in the Premier League leading to talk of a move to Tottenham that summer.
The Bournemouth striker has gradually declined since then managing only 26 goals in 94 Premier League appearances.
