West Ham make £12m bid for Aston Villa striker Danny Ings as David Moyes seeks to freshen up his strike force... with the Hammers also in talks for Lorient forward Terem Moffi and willing to sell Michail Antonio
- Aston Vila are willing to listen to permanent offers for the 30-year-old
- Moyes is a long-time admirer and has tried to sign the striker in the past
- Everton were knocked back in attempt to sign Ings on loan this month
West Ham have placed a bid of around £12million for Aston Villa striker Danny Ings.
Sportsmail reported West Ham's interest earlier this month, along with Everton, who want the 30-year old on an initial loan.
Villa did not want to loan out the former England international but are willing to listen to permanent offers particularly after signing Jhon Duran from Chicago Fire this week.

West Ham want to freshen up their strike force but have been struggling to find the right player within their budget.
David Moyes is a long-time admirer of Ings and has tried to sign the ex-Liverpool forward before.
West Ham have concerns over the form of Michail Antonio, who they are prepared to sell this window amid interest from rival Premier League clubs.

The Hammers have also been negotiating with Lorient for Terem Moffi after being rebuffed by Sevilla striker Youssef En-Nesyri early in the window.
Ings though would bring Premier League know-how and guaranteed goals plus the work rate that fits in Moyes's ethos.
The manager faces a crucial game against his former club Everton this weekend amid questions over his own future and that of counterpart Frank Lampard. Both sides desperately need a victory to push away from the relegation mire.
