West Ham are poised to snatch Gary Hooper away from under the noses of Norwich and QPR, according to the Scottish Sun this evening.

Hoops boss Neil Lennon this afternoon resigned himself to losing his prized asset, telling the Daily Mail that he believed it would be 'hard' for him to convince Hooper to stay at Parkhead and that he doesn't 'know where his [Hooper's] head is at.'

The striker had looked set to join either big spending Norwich or Championship side QPR but Hammers boss Sam Allardyce, who has thus far distanced himself from any of the transfer talk surrounding the former Scunthorpe man, is said to be plotting a late bid, with QPR having made an improved offer for Hooper last night.
