Sam Allardyce keen to sign another striker

Sam Allardyce has revealed that West Ham United will be looking to add another striker to their squad before the end of the current transfer window.

The Hammers have already been busy this summer, bringing in six new signings since the end of the 2013-14 Premier League season.

The manager told the club's website: "We still have one more to go in the recruitment process and I've been speaking to the joint-chairmen this week.

"Hopefully that player will bring something in terms of our capability of scoring more goals, not creating, because we've always been able to create."

West Ham averaged just 1.05 goals per game last season.
