West Ham have upped their bid for Brentford striker Scott Hogan.

The London Evening Standard says the East London club have already had two bids of £10million and £11.5m rejected by Brentford but are understood to have now improved their offer to £12.5m.

The Championship club are holding out for £15m for the 24-year-old, knowing that 30 per cent of any transfer fee will go to Hogan's previous club, Rochdale.

Hogan missed out with a minor glute injury as Brentford thrashed non-league Eastleigh 5-1 to book their place in the FA Cup Fourth Round on Saturday.

Many at Griffin Park believe Hogan has already played his last game for the club.
