Karren Brady has written in her football diary in The Sun that West Ham United are not a selling club.

The West Ham vice-chairman made the claim after pointing out the number of signings the London outfit made in the summer transfer window.

The Premier League side recruited Sofiane Feghouli, Ashley Fletcher, Andre Ayew, Alvaro Arbeloa, Arthur Masuaku and Havard Nordtveit on permanent contracts among other players.

The Hammers also brought in Simone Zaza and Gokhan Tore on loan from Juventus and Besiktas respectively in the summer transfer window.

Brady has claimed that West Ham are not a selling club and has highlighted their ambition.

“We signed a whole team this summer – the big purchases and loans adding up to 11,” Brady wrote in her football diary in The Sun.

“This is because we are serious about competing in the Prem. Slaven Bilic would never accuse our board of a lack of ambition.

“We are NOT a selling club, those days are over. And Dimitri Payet, as we promised, remains a proud West Ham player.”

West Ham are a big club and are hugely ambitious, and it is only a matter of time before they start competing for the Champions League places on a regular basis.

The London club have made some very good signings, and if all the players are fit, manager Slaven Bilic will have a squad good enough to at least push for a top-six finish in the Premier League this season.
