West Ham United have already had one offer turned down for Hull City winger Robert Snodgrass.

Robert Snodgrass has not ruled out the possibility that he will leave Hull City in the January transfer window, but admits that his future is in the hands of the club (Daily Star).

Hull have fended off interest in Snodgrass from West Ham United over the month so far (Daily Mail), and they seem determined to keep hold of the Scottish winger.

Hull took up an option in Snodgrass’s contract, which will keep him at the Stadium until the end of next season.

And although rumours continue to circle over his future, Snodgrass insists that the reports will not distract him from the task at hand.

“Let people talk,” Snodgrass said. “It’s for you guys to talk, not for me. I’m here and that’s why the manager has got me in the team, to work hard for my team-mates.

“That’s why I’m at the club, to score goals and create goals.

“But it’s about hard work at the end of the day, for me to try to do my job and try to score and create. I can always do better.

“That’s what I’m trying to do. I’m working hard on the training ground. But it’s all to try to get the team three points.

“I don’t want to talk about the transfer window. There’s too much stuff going on, from different angles, but it’s up to the club really.”

Snodgrass has arguably been Hull’s best performer so far this term, and he currently leads the club’s goalscoring charts.

The former Leeds United man has notched seven times in the Premier League so far, and he is proving to be a major attacking weapon.

West Ham are believed to have already had a bid rejected for Snodgrass, and it remains to be seen if Slaven Bilic’s side will come back with an improved offer.

West Ham are currently in 12th place in the Premier League table, while Hull are in 18th position.
