West Ham are said to be lining up a move for Reading's Pavel Pogrebnyak after the Russian's agent confirmed Premier League interest in the forward.
The Hammers were linked with the former Stuttgart man at the back end of last season but Pogrebnyak himself dismissed reports that at the time he would be leaving the Royals as 'bullshit.'
However, following the club's relegation from the Premier League, the Russia international has said that he would be open to a move away from the club and told Russian football website sovsport.ru that it would be a 'dream' to stay in the English top flight.
He said: "It's true that my dream is to continue my career in England, in the Premier League. But some of my best moments of my career were in Russia- so anything can happen."
Pogrebnyak's agent, Oleg Artemov, confirmed today that his client had received offers from Premier League clubs so the striker is likely to be on the move soon.
