West Ham are in talks to add Lazio forward Taty Castellanos for £25million on the back of agreeing to sign Gil Vicente striker Pablo Felipe for £21m.
The Hammers made their move for Castellanos after being quoted £40m for Wolves‘ Jorgen Strand Larsen and discovering Crystal Palace‘s Eddie Nketiah had picked up a hamstring injury.

West Ham also remain in discussions to sign Fulham winger Adama Troare on a short-term deal and have discussed a loan for Chelsea‘s Raheem Sterling, but the 31-year-old only wants a permanent move.
