West Ham Make £4m Bid for Dorrans

The Daily Mirror say that West Ham have made a £4 million offer for West Brom player Graham Dorrans. Here is the obligatory YouTube video of the 22 year old Scottish midfielder in action.



The paper say that Gianfranco Zola has given the bid his blessing. However, in another story, The Mirror say that Zola is certain to quit as he is unhappy with the new owners.

The Mirror say Avram Grant is in the frame for the manager's job at West Ham. They say that Martin Jol, Steve McClaren and Slaven Bilic are also on the short-list of possible replacements.


In other news The Sun say that West Ham have put every player up-for-sale, except Scott Parker.

Joint-owner David Sullivan said: "If we get the right bid we will sell any player, apart from Parker.

"That is the case with most teams other than Manchester United. But we have to improve the side.

"Parker is not for sale. He has several years left on his contract and has intimated on several occasions he wants to stay. He is Mr West Ham."


Finally, The Daily Mail say that Aston Villa are preparing a £10m bid for Carlton Cole.
