West Ham United plan bid for Angelo Ogbonna?

West Ham United are reportedly lining up an offer for Juventus defender Angelo Ogbonna.

The 27-year-old has been at the Bianconeri for two years and he has helped them to win the Serie A title in each of his seasons at the club.

However, he started just 18 league matches last season and he has struggled to displace the regular defensive trio of Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci and Andrea Barzagli.

According to The Mirror, West Ham are hoping to land the Italy international in a £12m deal, so that he can play alongside Winston Reid at the heart of their defence.

Ogbonna has made 10 appearances for his country and was included in their squad for Euro 2012.
