Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini often played with two strikers during his time in charge of Manchester City, which saw him win the Premier League title in 2014.
It could result in Ajeti partnering £45million club-record signing Haller up front with Declan Rice and fit-again Jack Wilshere supporting in midfield.
Felipe Anderson is likely to operate on the left wing after a successful debut 2018/19 Premier League campaign and Spain Under-21 star Pablo Fornals or Manuel Lanzini could battle it out for a starting place on the right side.

Haller is expected to be West Ham’s first-choice striker this season, however, a drop in form or injury could see Ajeti called upon.
Playing in his preferred no.10 role, Lanzini would offer bags of creativity for Ajeti to thrive on, and Wilshere could dictate the play from a more defensive position alongside Rice.
