West Ham have added Liverpool forward Harvey Elliott to their list of targets.
Liverpool’s Elliott is valued at £40m with a buy-back clause.
West Ham also admire his team-mate Tyler Morton, a target for Ajax.
The potential moves come as West Ham look to bolster following the £54.5million sale of Mohammed Kudus to Tottenham.
The Hammers are yet to submit a bid for Elliott but appear optimistic that a deal can get over the line.
Elliott, 22, played a starring role for England U-21 last month, netting five goals in six games during their run to the European Championships crown.

Elliott can play both out wide and through the middle but has struggled for consistent game time.
Just two of his 18 league games last season came as a starter.
Graham Potter, who was hired as West Ham manager last January, is in the middle of his first summer window in charge as he looks to freshen up his squad.
They are also keeping tabs on Morton, the young midfielder who is also an England U-21 international.
He is a product of the Liverpool academy and has had previous loan stints with Blackburn and Hull City.
