Stadium battle likely to scupper West Ham bid for Spurs striker Keane

A move to West Ham United for Tottenham striker Robbie Keane is unlikely over their London Olympic stadium battle.

The Daily Express says Spurs are adamant they will let Keane go this month only if they receive an offer of about £6million - and there is a determination within the club to make the Hammers pay for mocking their summer bid for Scott Parker.

West Ham co-owner David Sullivan hit out at Tottenham over the £7m bid for Parker - which was rejected - and accused the White Hart Lane club of stealing Eidur Gudjohnsen from under their noses last year.

With the boot now on the other foot - and a decision expected next week on which of the two clubs will be preferred bidder for the Olympic stadium - a Spurs insider said: "We will not be doing West Ham any favours."
