Alvaro Negredo: West Ham's £14.5m bid for striker rejected
Last updated on .From the section Football

West Ham have had a £14.5m bid for Sevilla striker Alvaro Negredo rejected, according to the Spanish club's president.
Jose Maria Del Nido said Sevilla were under no pressure to sell, having already agreed a £17m-plus deal with Manchester City for winger Jesus Navas.
"West Ham offered 17m (euros) with more in incentives but we do not value the offer and the player refused," he said.
The 27-year-old Spain international scored 31 goals last season.
At a news conference, Del Nido added: "He has four years left on his contract.
"He is at home here. He has scored a lot of goals and delighted us with his football."
However, he said the deal for 27-year-old Navas was "a great deal for both parties".
Sevilla finished the season ninth in La Liga but qualified for the Europa League because of European competition bans imposed on Malaga and Rayo Vallecano.

You do realise that all those "nothing on Rodgers, Suarez, Sterling, YNWA...etc' posts are just trolls? They're clearly not LFC fans. They get a kick out of you thinking they're doing a good imitation job.
1) To those Slating West Ham. They are a club rising, Sevilla are a club in trouble - Financially and on the pitch.
2) Negredo is very much a good fit for West Ham, he is a strong target man who can play the way Big Sam would want him to.
Allowing comments is just allowing people to slate West ham for perhaps being over ambitous, but it would of been an immense signing.
As a Hammer, I'm glad, if we're now willing to spend 15mil on a player, there's much much better value footballers out there.
Carroll did well for us, when he wasn't injured yes, but if we're going to spend this kind of money, then I reckon it will be better spent on more talented attackers. Bony?
...I'm here all week.
Can see West Ham sitting very comfortably next season if they keep showing that level of ambition with their signings.
You're wrong - Big Sam is probably the most under-rated manager in the league. The football we play is physical, but not hoofball, as shown by the stats (in terms of the percentage of passes made last season being long balls, West Ham came 10th - ahead of Swansea, Norwich and Everton). As a manager, Sam has never been relegated; for us West Ham fans, survival is always the aim.

Haters are always on these forums. Give some clubs, players and managers respect. Arm chair supporters are never good to listen to!
Having read them I think us Mancs need to stop pouring chemicals in to the Mersey. It appears to be flowing in to Liverpool and giving them hallucinations and delusions of grandeur.
Good to see a bit of ambition from West Ham.
