Slaven Bilic will make the ultimate decision on whether West Ham will make their final move for Brentford striker Scott Hogan, according to Sky sources.
Bilic is currently sitting on the fence about the 24-year-old, whom the Hammers already negotiated a principle agreement for earlier this month.
Sky Sports News HQ understands the two clubs have agreed to a £9m payment up-front but disagree on added bonuses.
Brentford want a further £6m to meet their £15m valuation of the player, but West Ham have so far only offered a further £3m.
Hogan himself is keen on the move and has missed three Brentford games this month against Eastleigh in the FA Cup, and Newcastle and Wigan in the Championship.
He came on as a second-half substitute in the 4-0 FA Cup fourth-round defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
A number of clubs have been interested in the striker, who has scored 14 goals this season and 21 since joining from Rochdale for just £750,000 in 2014.
