Eggert Magnusson, Chairman of West Ham United FC, said today: "This is an
important time for the Club. The Board are working very hard with Alan
Curbishley to identify what we need to do to strengthen our squad for next
season. "We are involved in negotiations but it would not be appropriate to
comment on those discussions until they are finalised one way or another.
"Of course, throughout this period there will be a great deal of media
speculation about players, transfer fees and even salary levels, much of
which will not reflect reality. "Whereever there is progress to report and
real decisions made we will announce that via our official website. In the
meantime I believe that our supporters know that we are seeking to take the
Club on to the next level as we prepare for next season and will always act
in the best interests of West Ham in the decisions we take."
On the specific issue regarding discussions between West ham and Everton FC,
Mr Magnusson added: "I've had a very positive discussion with my good friend
Bill Kenwright, the Everton Chairman, and can confirm that West Ham have not
and are not bidding for any Everton player at this time."
