West Ham are set to take a look at Finnish under-19 international goalkeeper Jukka Lehtovaara.

18-year-old Lehtovaara is currently second choice at Finnish Premiership outfit TPS but is set to travel to England in the next few days for a trial with the Hammers.

Lehtovaara had been set to join West Ham in Sweden on their recent pre-season tour, but a minor injury put paid to that.

Lehtovaara's contract with TPS expires next season, and the Hammers are thought to be one of several English clubs keeping an eye on his progress.
