AC Milan striker M'Baye Niang, 21, could be offloaded to West Ham after the French youngster reportedly filmed himself jumping into a swimming pool from a house roof.

West Ham United have reportedly expressed an interest in signing AC Milan striker M'Baye Niang after the Serie A club were left unimpressed with the Frenchman's off-the-pitch attitude.

The 21-year-old recently published a video online appearing to show him jumping into a pool from the roof of his house, and the Rossoneri released a brief statement saying that the stunt "didn't go unnoticed".

As a result, Milan have reportedly put Niang on the transfer list, and the Hammers are keen to swoop in and sign the forward for a fee of around £14m, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

Missing both the opening and the final parts of last season due to injury, Niang managed to score five goals and an assist from 16 Serie A appearances.
