West Ham are preparing a surprise move for Fenerbahce striker Moussa Sow, according to the Wharf.
The Senegal international’s future in Istanbul looks to be coming to an end after Robin van Persie’s arrival from Manchester United last week.
The Wharf claim Sow would be available for around £12million, which is believed to be in the Hammers’ price range for a striker.
Sow, 29, averaged one goal every two games for the Turkish giants last season and scored 25 for Lille as they surprisingly won Ligue 1 in 2011.

Slaven Bilic is in the market for another front man, with Andy Carroll still not fit enough to return to action and Modibo Maiga yet to impress during pre-season.
Bilic may be eying Sow as a serious option instead of QPR striker Charlie Austin, who is believed to be in a transfer tug-of-war between the Hammers and Newcastle.
Sow would undoubtedly hit the ground running in East London alongside compatriot Diafra Sakho, who enjoyed a successful maiden season in England last term.
Sow’s experience in Europe will also be seen as a bonus.
Here are some highlights of Sow in action…

Really, Didier Drogba could cut it last year; was he too old?
He’s a finisher. Time and again…and in different ways; some ungainly shots that still went in and spectacular overheads (on a regular basis). He also knows where to be at the right time for a tap in; looks obvious, but why do so many not get taps ins? Because they aren’t there!! One on ones, headers, sending defenders the wrong way to create space for a shot (great balance etc); he seems to have it all. Maybe the opposition is not as tough as the prem?? Nevertheless, I like the look of him. More than Austin…or anyone else. He may be older, but is EXACTLY what we need right now; Imagine him being supplied by Payet or Lanzini (if Lanzini can cut it and not get wiped out physically)? = GOALS!…SO, YES PLEASE!
Trop cher pour un attaquant trop vieux .
