West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini refused to rule out a January move for Besiktas midfielder Gary Medel yesterday.

Medel, formerly of Cardiff City, is being linked with the Hammers.

And Pellegrini stated: "Those names are among 25 over the last few weeks.

“We are happy with the squad we know we need to replace players that won't play more this season – Carlos Sanchez, Yarmolenko.

"I will not talk about individual players now.“
