West Ham United are considering a move for Borussia Dortmund forward Niclas Fullkrug, according to Sky Sports.

The German striker is expected to leave the Signal Iduna Park this summer, having been previously linked with Atletico Madrid and AC Milan.

However, Sky Sports' Dharmesh Sheth said: "Dortmund striker Niclas Fullkrug has emerged as a potential target for West Ham United.

"The Germany international is into the final two years of his contract. Interest retained in Aston Villa's Jhon Duran - but gap in valuation - & Villarreal's Alexander Sorloth."

The 31-year-old scored 13 goals in 21 caps for Germany.

His deal with Dortmund runs until the summer of 2026.
