Allardyce reveals West Ham still waiting on offers for players

For the moment Robert Green, Carlton Cole and Scott Parker remain West Ham players as the Hammers have yet to receive any offers for the trio, claims new boss Sam Allardyce. The England trio are expected to leave the Upton Park this summer following their relegation to the Championship.

"The speculation is around Rob Green, Carlton Cole and Scott Parker, and at the moment we haven't had any concrete bids for those players," he said.

"Other than that there is no rush to sell anyone else.

"We will probably look at moving some of the players on because their desire is to play in Premier League.

"From a financial point of view, it suits us to lose that financial commitment because the drastic loss in revenue [following relegation] is what we all have to face at West Ham; certainly the owners, who've got to really back up with their own money to help us try to get back in the Premier League.

"We will try and get as good a squad as we can. There's some very good players at the club. If we all want to work together and go in the right direction, we can give it our best shot and hopefully that will be enough next season."
