Ghana captain can wait until after deadline
Skysports.com understands that Ghana captain Stephen Appiah is in no hurry to commit his future to West Ham.
The Hammers have been strongly linked with the powerful midfielder and were reported to be ready to push through a deal before the deadline at midnight.
But Appiah, who is a free agent having parted company with Fenerbahce, is considering his options with a number of Europe's leading clubs believed to be interested.
Sources close to the player have told skysports.com that Appiah will not rush into putting pen to paper with any club due to his status as a free agent.
As he is no longer under contract with the Turkish giants, the former Juventus player will be able to sign for a new club after the closure of the transfer window.
The highly-rated Appiah is bound to attract interest in the Premier League, Spain, Italy and Germany with his combative talents much in demand.
