West Ham have agreed a deal in principle worth up to £30m for Brentford star Said Benrahma, claims Sky Sports.
The Hammers still need to agree personal terms with the Algeria international and a medical cannot take place until Wednesday following international duty.
West Ham are on the market for a new winger after loaning Felipe Anderson to FC Porto last week and have until October 16 to get a deal done.
While the transfer window for European clubs shut on October 5, Premier League sides can still recruit from EFL sides until the end of the week.

Benrahma has been angling for a move to the Premier League ever since Brentford missed out on promotion last season.
Brentford cashed in on Ollie Watkins to Aston Villa earlier in the window and are now set to receive a similar fee for Benrahma.
The 25-year-old finished last season as the top WhoScored rated player in the Championship last season (7.49) after playing a direct hand in 26 goals in 46 league matches (17 goals, nine assists).
