West Ham United have confirmed that they have rejected a bid for their midfielder Scott Parker from local rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

The 29 year old has three years left on his contract at the club and has been linked with a move away. If Tottenham were to have a bid accepted for the midfielder then they would certainly have a fight on their hands as Liverpool have been heavily linked with the midfielder.

West Ham United owners David Sullivan and David Gold have aleady said that all their players have a price tag and could be sold, apart from Scott Parker.

David Sullivan told the club’s official website “I made a promise that I would not sell Scott and I will not, for any amount of money, break that promise to the West Ham supporters,” he said.

“Scott is not for sale at any price, to anyone. West Ham supporters, for far too long, have had owners that sell their best players and promise one thing and do another.

“This is a new era. We are building a bigger, better West Ham and when we make a promise, we honour it.”
