West Ham on verge of ending Rob Green pursuit

The potential deal for Robert Green could be off due to QPR goalkeeper’s wage demands. The Daily Mail are reporting that Green is demanding a huge £50,000 a week contract.

The 35-year-old spent six years at West Ham from 2006 till 2012 and made 241 appearances for the club. He was at the club for the relegation season of 2010-11 season and remained in goal during the Championship campaign and played in the play-off final which West Ham won, returning to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

Manager Slaven Bilic is currently in the midst of a goalkeeping crisis with first choice keeper Adrian banned for 3 games after his red card against Leicester during the 2-1 defeat. Darren Randolph looks set to step in, but West Ham are set to still chase Rob Green hoping he will lower his wage demands.

It would take a bid of around £1.5-million to get Green from QPR but the former England International is reluctant to play second fiddle to Spanish goalkeeper Adrian.
