West Ham Turn Down Man Utd Tevez Offer

According to Five Live west Ham have turned down a transfer request from man Utd for Carlos Tevez. Five Live's Gordon Farquhar says,

"Despite a day of talks led by chairman Eggert Magnusson for the Hammers and Maurice Watkins for United, there is no deal and West Ham clearly aren't going to be rail-roaded into this.

"They have refused a written transfer request, are asserting their rights over the player and are going to insist on this being a transfer between two clubs and not with a third party, the MSI group, whatever their claims over economic rights to the player may be."
