West Ham are monitoring Marseille defender Nicolas N'Koulou as they prepare to lose Winston Reid.
While Sam Allardyce was ensuring his team were riding high in third position in the Premier League on Sunday, clubs scouts were dispatched to watch versatile Cameroon man N'Koulou.
West Ham are bracing themselves for offers for Reid who has attracted interest from Arsenal and Everton. He is out of contract in the summer and the chances of him agreeing a new deal look slim.
The Hammers are reluctant to sell but will do should someone offer £6million or more in the January window.

The 24-year-old N'Koulou played in the middle of a three man defence as Marseille beat Metz 3-1 on Sunday. A former target for Arsenal and Atletico Madrid, N'Koulou is well regarded around Europe. He is a product of the Kadji Sports Academy in Douala which also helped develop Samuel Eto'o and previously played for Monaco. Napoli, Liverpool and Newcastle have also watched him in recent seasons.
