West Ham boss Sam Allardyce has not given up on signing Darren Fletcher from Manchester United. The Scotland captain Fletcher has been granted a free transfer to allow him to move to another club during the mid-season transfer window.
"It's still a possibility. But it's not absolutely certain," Allardyce said.
Allardyce indicated on Tuesday that the signing of Fletcher would depend on whether the midfielder wanted to make the move.
"We'd like a quality player of Darren's talent, if that's at all possible, but if it doesn't happen, we're not in a position where we desperately need players."
