An end to the Senegal striker’s misery at West Ham appears in sight, with Sky Sports reporting a move to West Bromwich is close.
The 26-year-old has put in a transfer request, easing the exit of a player who has scored 15 goals in 38 Premier League games.
A marriage of convenience could see the Italy striker head to Milan, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

Shock target: Jonny Evans.
The centre-back has been revitalised since he left Manchester United last summer and this form has seen Arsenal turn to him as a replacement for the injured Per Mertesacker, according to the Daily Mirror.
A return to the big time will surely be alluring.
