West Ham remain disinterested in discussing the upcoming transfer market where two full backs remain the top priority.
The manager intends to remain entirely open minded on his options until everything is decided although Nottingham Forest’s Matthew Cash is believed to still be one possible prospect.
That has come from the Nottingham end, via Forest local newspaper and on line sources, but until we know which division we are playing in 20.21 in everything remain up in the air.
That would be reduced to something like £13 million but the big snag right now is that the City Ground outfit are reasonably well placed in the play-off zone and promotion would put an end to the Cash discussion.
He is a useful operator and can play on the right side of midfield but the circumstances dictate that there can be no big move at this stage.
Indeed most rumour mongering of transfer market activity involving West Ham right now should be ignored until the picture is much clearer.
