West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce has confirmed talks with Tottenham over the sale of Scott Parker.
With the transfer window closing on Wednesday night, Allardyce is keen to move on Parker in order to fund new signings.
The former Blackburn boss confirmed on Friday talks had begun over a deal. When asked whether negotiations were taking place between the two London clubs over a deal for the midfielder, Allardyce said: "I am not in talks (personally) with them but there is some dialogue going on at the moment. That is all I am aware of."
Allardyce sounded a word of caution about the transfer though, perhaps well aware that Spurs are renowned as shrewd operators in the market.
"As in terms of what level it is at, I certainly know that a deal has not been struck by any way, shape or form at this moment in time about Scott Parker," Allardyce added.
"Whether he is here on Wednesday depends on whether someone reaches the owners' valuation."
