West Ham United fans have reacted to reports linking the club with a move for Inter Milan star Valentino Lazaro.

According to FC Inter News, the Hammers have made contact over the Austria international, who has had to contend with a bit-part role at San Siro this season under Antonio Conte.

The full-back was signed in the summer for a reported £20 million from Hertha Berlin, but has turned out just 11 times so far and only once in his natural position of right-back.

West Ham have apparently enquired about taking the player on loan, with Inter aware the player would like more game time.

At the moment the Irons could do with some move cover on the right side of their defence, with Ryan Fredericks out injured.

Lazaro has previously been dubbed the best Austrian player since David Alaba, and has also been compared to Chelsea star Willian in terms of play style (bundesliga.com).

David Moyes is understood to be keen to make more signings this month, having finally completed a move for Darron Randolph on Wednesday.
