Premier League sides Southampton and West Ham look set to do battle for a striker with a blistering goal record.
Ralph Hasenhuttl lost talisman Danny Ings during the summer transfer window. The prolific Englishman left for Aston Villa in a shock £30million move.
Saints have struggled in front of goal since his departure. They have scored just six times in eight matches, resulting in a single victory against Leeds United.
The south coast outfit replaced Ings with Adam Armstrong. The 24-year-old got off the mark against Everton on the opening day but has failed to find the net since.
