West Ham remain frustrated in bid for Brentford striker Scott Hogan

West Ham are still battling to secure a deal for Brentford striker Scott Hogan.

The London Evening Standard says Brentford have rejected three bids of £10million, £11.5m and £12.5m and have made clear that they will not countenance a deal worth less than their £15m asking price.

The last of those bids was made over a fortnight ago but since then Hogan has not featured under Dean Smith, who said after Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Wigan that the striker had “had his head turned".

Hogan, who is suffering with a tight hamstring, had withdrawn from the matchday squad as he expected to be the subject of an imminent bid - but Brentford have not received any such offer.

West Ham remain keen on Hogan, as they do on Hull winger Robert Snodgrass, but have seen a string of bids for both players knocked back throughout the window.
