West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic has confirmed that the club are close to completing deals for two new players.
The Hammers have been heavily linked with a £20m move for Swansea City striker Andre Ayew in recent weeks, while they are also understood to be nearing a £1m deal for Olympiacos left-back Arthur Masuaku.
Bilic admitted that he hoped to have both deals over the line before his side's match against Juventus this afternoon, but is expecting confirmation in the near future.
"We are quite close to getting two new players," Bilic told reporters.
"I hoped it would be yesterday and they would play a part today but the paperwork was not done. It's only a matter of paperwork and then we will have two new players at West Ham."
West Ham have so far brought in Sofiane Feghouli, Ashley Fletcher, Manuel Lanzini and Havard Nordtveit this summer.
