Hamilton Academical fullback Stephen Hendrie would welcome a move this month to the Premier League.

The Daily Mail says Hamilton chairman Les Gray is bracing himself for a £2million offer from West Ham United for the latest gem off the New Douglas Park production line.

"I'm 20 next week," said Hendrie, who has helped Hamilton into third in the Scottish Premiership but is out of contract at the end of the season.

"I don't think that's too young or too old to move from Hamilton.

"I'm a Celtic fan and obviously the (English) Premier League is one of the best leagues in the world.

"That's my dream - you want to reach as high a level as you can and if I can get to the Premier League that would be brilliant.

"But the Accies would need to see if it's the right offer. If it is, they say they'll never stand in anybody's way. They are a great club like that. If they accepted it, there is not much I could do."
