Shorey Flattered by West Ham Interest

Nicky Shorey has said that he is flattered by West Ham's interest in him. Shorey is currently in contract negotiations with Reading so this may be just a tactical ploy on his part. However Shorey is a life long West Ham fan and the rumours are that West Ham are planning a £5 million bid for the left back.

Shorey said,

"It's flattering to hear they might be interested, we'll just have to see what happens. My agent has been dealing with my contract, but, so far, I haven't received an offer.

"I don't know what's going to happen, I want to see where Reading see me in their plans and also where the club is going."
