West Ham out of Jordan Rhodes race

West Ham manager Sam Allardyce today admitted that a move for Jordan Rhodes before the end of the January transfer window is unlikely. The Hammers have had a 3 million GBP offer rejected by Huddersfield.

The highly rated striker has been linked with a move to Upton Park for several weeks, but according to the West Ham manager, all talk of a deal appears to be on ice.


Allardyce said: "At the moment I would say, yes, we have given up on that."


Rhodes is said to be keen on a move to the Premier League, with Norwich and West Brom both interested.
