West Ham would like to take Andre Schurrle on loan from Borussia Dortmund this month.
The former Chelsea forward is out of favour at the Westfalenstadion. And ahead of the World Cup in Russia next summer, Schurrle would like to get more game time under his belt.
The Germany international has now emerged as a potential target for the Hammers. According to reports, David Moyes is interested in signing Schurrle on a short-term basis.
The West Ham boss wants more balance in his squad. Moyes told the club’s official website last month: “I think we’re short in some areas and overloaded in others.

“For example, we’ve got lots of forwards, but we’re really short of midfield players. We’ve got quite a few who are comfortable playing on the left, but not so many who can play on the right.
“So we’ve got a little bit of an imbalanced squad which we’ve got to straighten out in January if we can.”
With Javier Hernandez looking to move, Schurrle could be an ideal replacement for the Hammers.
