West Ham table £6 million Downing offer

Liverpool winger Stewart Downing will travel to London for talks with West Ham next week after the Anfield side received a £6 million bid from the Hammers. The winger's Liverpool future has remained uncertain since Brendan Rodgers told the player he is not part of his first team plans six months ago.

According to the Independent, the Hammers have already bid £5 million and Liverpool are hoping to negotiate with West Ham for around £6 million.


Hammers' manager Sam Allardyce has already made a series of major acquisitions in this summer's transfer window but is still missing a new winger. Downing had been told he could leave Liverpool for £8 million last January, but the Hammers have reduced the asking price to a reported £6 million.


The 29-year-old, who is currently in Ireland on tour with Liverpool, has reportedly already started looking for properties in London ahead of a transfer move.
