According to a Sky Sports report, West Ham youngster Reece Oxford has turned down the club’s offer of a new contract and therefore the Hammers are willing to listen to bids of about £10million if any other side decides that they want to sign him.

The 17-year-old is currently under contract until 2018 and West Ham wanted to extend his current deal but it seems like he is looking for more playing time, hence why he has decided to turn down the contract offer.
Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United are just three of the clubs rumoured to be interested in signing Oxford, who is capable of playing either as a centre-back or as a defensive midfielder.
The 17-year-old made 12 first-team appearances for the Hammers this season but it seems as if he’s looking for more consistent first team action in the near future.
