Hart has been expected to leave City this summer after returning from a season-long loan at Serie A side Torino and admitted in May that he was "more than likely" to move to another Premier League club.

City have signed two goalkeepers since Pep Guardiola became manager last summer, with Claudio Bravo and Ederson arriving at the Etihad, leaving Hart surplus to requirements.

West Ham have made only one signing this summer, with defender Pablo Zabaleta joining on a free transfer following his release from City.

Manager Slaven Bilic is also looking to strengthen his attacking options ahead of the new Premier League season.
