As well as signing target-man Haller, West Ham signed Spanish attacker Pablo Fornals from La Liga side Villarreal earlier this summer, the Irons signed the ace for £24m, according to BBC Sport.
The London club are in desperate need of bolstering their attacking options this summer, injury-ridden Andy Carroll was released at the end of last season, misfit Lucas Perez returned to Spain and star Marko Arnautovic made a switch to the Chinese Super League after pushing for an exit from the London Stadium.
According to The Scotsman, one of West Ham’s reported targets is Rangers star Alfredo Morelos, a source that goes by the name of ‘EXWHUEmployee’ revealed that the talented youngster could be snapped up for as little as £4m to £5m.
Morelos would be a solid backup option to Haller.
