West Ham are likely to be involved in the transfer window right up to the wire - with further movement expected between now and 5:00pm Monday.

With the winter window extended by a further two days this year due to January 31st falling on a Saturday the Hammers still have three more days to conclude any business.

It is thought that at least one player will leave the club, although barring the imminent arrival of Radoslav Kovac - who could be confirmed as Gianfranco Zola's second signing later today - no further arrivals are expected, as things stand.

The most likely departure is centre-half Calum Davenport, who has been talking with both Sunderland and Championship outfit Wolves this week.

The central defender, who was told he would be allowed to leave the club after a recent bust-up with Zola will cost potential suitors around £3million, the same figure United paid Tottenham two years ago this month.

The Hammers will also listen to offers for both Luis Boa Morte and Julien Faubert although neither are close to leaving despite interest from a number of clubs.
