Now the Hammers and Palace are looking into a swoop for the Londoner, whose price tag has soared to around £10million.
West Ham are in the market for new blood up front.
While Palace were keen on Maja after he notched 16 goals in League One for the Black Cats in 2018-19.
Both clubs have funds for signings and are also in the market for emerging English talent.
West Ham and Palace are looking at experienced options too.
The Hammers have reportedly expressed an interest in Manchester United flop Alexis Sanchez.
And there is also the possibility of a free transfer for Borussia Dortmund ace Mario Gotze.
Meanwhile, Palace are keeping tabs on CSKA Moscow striker Fedor Chalov.
And the Eagles are also monitoring Michy Batshuayi’s situation at Chelsea.
