Ahmed Elmohamady in West Ham United talks

Sunderland winger Ahmed Elmohamady has revealed that he is in discussions with West Ham United over a potential switch to Upton Park.

The 25-year-old has failed to make a single Premier League appearance for the Black Cats since Martin O'Neill took charge of the club last December.

As a result, the Egypt international has confirmed that a move to the Hammers could be in the offing.

"West Ham are in talks with me. There could be something next week," he said.

It has been reported the 25-year-old will join West Ham on a season-long loan deal.
