Emmanuel Emenike bagged 12 goals in 28 league games for Fenerbahce in the 2013/14 season

Hammers manager Bilic will let Mauro Zarate join Fiorentina with Nikica Jelavic also set for a move out of Upton Park.

Bilic knows Emenike from his time in charge of Besiktas, with the striker scoring 15 goals in 57 Fenerbahce outings, including one in a 2-0 away win against Bilic's team last season.

The Nigerian quit international duty in October before moving to Al Ain but is now poised to cut short a temporary spell with the Abu Dhabi-based club to seal a loan move to London.

Bilic said: "We are linked with a few strikers - he's the one. We're going to see what happens now."
