West Ham's £15 million Adriano Bid

Despite yesterday's official club statement stating that West Ham had only made a loan offer for Inter's Adriano and ridiculing the 'figures that have been quoted' Channel Four today claim that the club have offered Inter £15 million for the Brazilian striker.

Channel Four say that West Ham's initial loan offer was rejected by the player so the club have responded by changing the offer to a permanent deal worth £15 million.
