Jack Sullivan, son of co-owner David Sullivan has suggested West Ham have no interest in signing two Arsenal players with whom the club have been linked.
Sullivan Jnr, posting on Twitter this afternoon insisted that West Ham will not be pursuing either Theo Walcott or Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, both of whom have been linked with summer moves away from the Emirates.Just spoke to dad, we are not interested in Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain!

That message followed an earlier tweet in which Sullivan hinted that the Hammers are close to concluding a deal for a new wide player, who he refrained from naming.
NEWS - we are close to a deal on an International winger. that might conclude in about 12 days, if everything goes to plan!

Speculation suggests that the player in question could be Valencia's 26-year-old Algerian international Sofiane Feghouli, who is available on a free transfer. KUMB revealed last month that the club were monitoring his situation.
