Riza will be released by West Ham at the end of June so we would get him permanently. The problem as usual, is money as Hendrie has reportedly said "I've kept my eye on Riza's situation at West Ham, but any move will depend on what we can afford to offer him." The chances of other English clubs not being interested is unlikely, and they could probably offer much more than us.
Last years deal seemed like it was to be similar to the deal which saw Jermaine Defoe go to Bournemouth from West Ham on loan. Defoe broke the record for goals in consecutive games and played a lot in the West Ham first team this season.
Riza is a fast striker, something we desperately need. Mirren Mad will of course keep you up to date with the situation and bring you the first denial of the story when it appears. We're still waiting on a denial of the Yards story!
