Manchester City looking to rope in West Ham United’s Bridge
On Thursday, West Ham United co-owner David Gold told the press that he has a trick or two up his sleeve to keep the London club in top flight.
The Hammers are almost certain to be relegated this season, having secured only seventeen points out of a possible sixty so far. However, the West Ham chairman was optimistic of his side’s chances to climb out of the drop zone by the end of the season. Gold
was willing to open up his chequebook in January, though he refused to name Avram Grant’s targets in the transfer window.
It has been revealed that Manchester City defender http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Bridge-c36733 is one of the players the West Ham manager has on his radar. The Hammers have offered to pay the out-of-favour defender 95,000 pounds a week to take him on loan until the end of the season.
However, Manchester City have reportedly turned them down.
West Ham were under the impression that City would be willing to loan out their surplus players if their wages could be covered. Avram Grant was hoping to sign Bridge in time for the vital clash against Newcastle next week, but the move has shuddered to
a halt. Manchester City are insisting that West Ham must not only cover Bridge's wages, but all the add-ons and bonuses as well.
Wayne Bridge has seen very little playing time at Eastlands. The defender would have welcomed a loan move just to get some regular football. The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 international has only 18 months left on his contract with Manchester City, and his future with
the club has come under speculation following their big money signing of Alexander Kolarov from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775.
Manchester City might be forced to loan out the 30-year-old if Roberto http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 signs new players in the January transfer window. If the deal does go through, it will be a big boost to West Ham’s survival chances this season. We will find out more about Avram
Grant’s ambitious transfer plans in the coming weeks.
