West Ham United are targeting Chelsea forward Loïc Rémy as Slaven Bilic prepares to make his first signing, it is claimed.
According to reports in the Guardian, the Hammers want to convince the Frenchman to leave Stamford Bridge with a promise of more first team football.
The ex-Queens Park Rangers man made just six starts in the Premier League for Jose Mourinho’s championship winners last season, but would be more valued as a player at Upton Park.
Bilic was named West Ham manager yesterday and the Croatian may also attempt to capture fellow countryman Alen Halilovic who could be available on loan from Champions League winners Barcelona.
The midfielder made 30 appearances for the Spanish side’s B team last season and also has seven caps for his country.
