West Ham United's search for a new left-back has led to Roma ace Anass Salah Eddine.

The Hammers sold El Hadji Malick Diouf to Brentford earlier in the window and have been searching for reinforcement.

Youngster Oliver Scarles is the main option at Nuno Espirito Santo's disposal following the exit of the Senegal international.

Youngster Ezra Mayers is also on the books, while Kyle Walker-Peters has played there in the early stages of the season.

But now, the Irons are making a late play to add to a problem position in the closing hours of the window.

West Ham United launch move for Anass Salah Eddine

The 24-year-old made the move to Roma in 2024 but has featured only a handful of times for the Serie A side.

Eddine spent last season on loan at PSV Eindhoven, making 17 appearances for the Eredivisie side.

He has yet to feature for Roma in the early stages of the campaign, and was not in the squad for fixtures against Fiorentina or Lecce.

Now, Roshane Thomas has reported for the Athletic that West Ham are making a move to take him to the London Stadium.

West Ham are looking to conclude a season-long deal to bring the Morocco international to east London.

West Ham are being extremely active in the closing hours of the window, with several names linked.

What other business are West Ham doing?

It was always likely that West Ham would be active in the market right down to the end of the window.

The Hammers' relegation led to several high-profile departures including Mateus Fernandes, Crysencio Summerville and Diouf.

Defence is looking a position that is especially light on numbers, and Nottingham Forest defender Morato is reportedly in line for a loan switch.

Leicester City's Belgian defender Wout Faes has also been linked with a shock move, though it looks as though those rumours may have been premature.
