West Ham are poised to make a move for Swedish winger Mervan Celik.
Sam Allardyce is desperate to strengthen his squad after being hit by an injury crisis at a crucial stage of the season.
David Bentley has been ruled out for six months while Henri Lansbury will also be missing until Christmas.
With Matt Taylor also being sidelined with a calf injury, Allardyce has been short of players in the wide areas and is hoping Celik could be a welcome addition to the squad.
Celik, 21, plays for GAIS in the Swedish League and has scored an impressive 14 goals in 27 games this season.
The Swedish Under-21 international, whose contract runs out in December, has also been linked with Fulham and Middlesbrough, but the east London club appear to be the strong favourites to clinch his signature.
