West Ham United co-chairman David Gold has denied reports of January sale plans for Winston Reid.

It's been claimed West Ham will seek to sell Reid if he fails to pen new terms before the winter transfer window.

But Gold tweeted:

"@leighMrBsmall: why are we getting rid of winton reid? We are not 'getting rid' of WR we want him to stay and sign a new, contract. dg — David Gold (@davidgold) November 16, 2014
