Gold explains Reid situation

West Ham still have received no bids  or inquiries for Winston Reid despite morning reports the central defender has insisted he wants to chance to join Arsenal if they make a January if they make an offer.

Co chairman David Gold told ClaretandHugh exclusively: “To my knowledge there has been no inquiry of any kind.”

According to the Mirror, the player has told the Irons he wants to join Arsenal should the north Londoners come for him and describe the north Londoners as “his dream move.

Arsene Wenger has confirmed he is in for a new centre-back this month and Reid, out of contract in the summer, does not want to be denied a dream move.

However, despite all the surrounding publicity Gold said: “There has been nothing and we are all at the point now where we just want a decision and we hope that he will sign the very good offer we have put in front of him.

“We understand what Winston is trying to do – get the best deal he can for himself and his family – but we believe it’s time for him to make his decision and we hope it’s to sign.”
