West Ham want McGregor


Ibroxblue

Recommended Posts

WEST HAM are ready to launch a £4million swoop for Rangers star Allan McGregor.

Hammers gaffer Gianfranco Zola wants the keeper to replace England No1 Robert Green.

Zola's side are deep in debt and Green is a target for Sunderland, whose Scotland goalie Craig Gordon is injured.

McGregor, 28 in January, is in the best form of his career and kept the score down during Tuesday night's 2-0 Champions League defeat to Stuttgart.

His Ibrox heroics prompted Stuttgart ace Alexander Hleb to claim he could move to Manchester United or Manchester City.

But West Ham are already in the hunt as they fight against the drop from the English top-flight.

Along with £10m-rated Green, the Upton Park outfit could also sell England centre-back Matthew Upson to City for £12m.

And striker Carlton Cole has been been touted for a £20m move to Liverpool....

This is complete and utter bullshit. Typical of the Scottish sun. Don't believe anything they ever say as it's all shite. Why the hek would Greegsy want to play for West Ham anyway?! $ 4 million pound for him. You're having a laugh man. He's worth twice that minimum. Not gonna happen

I heard Spurs wanted him for £5m in January...

Problem is ,no matter what you think McGregor is worth it's all down to how much we can say no to and at this moment we really have to accept every decent offer..

So comparing him to Premiership strikers or Keepers is daft...he plays for Rangers and in the eyes of Europe Rangers are a very poor side playing in a backwater.....Harsh realities i'm afraid.

Why would you want to play for West Ham? Fuck that.

Proper football club with a good youth setup :sherlock:

I for one couldn't really care, 4 million is too little but for, let's say double, we should let him go (if he wants).

We are, sadly, not in a position to bargain too much over our players.

Plus, we have a replacement in Alexander.

Heard on Clyde this morning that West Ham have been looking at McGregor..

Only info I can find was here

Rangers star Allan McGregor is set to be the target of a £4million transfer bid from West Ham United. The English side are looking to shuffle their keepers as they bid to keep their Premier League status.

McGregor’s stunning but futile performance against Stuttgart this week gave further notice of his excellent current form.

West Ham, who are sitting just outside the relegation zone, are likely to be forced to sell some of their assets in the face of mounting debt. Rangers’ financial concerns mean they will consider all bids in the January transfer window and the domino effect could see the two clubs doing business.

West Ham may be interested but they have their own financial difficulties at the moment and might have to get rid of a couple of players themselves, as for the fee they can take a running jump, saw this story earlier on and that was saying McGregor is rated at about £6 million.
