West Ham have assured fans Scott Parker will not be sold after rejecting a bid from Premier League rivals Tottenham.

The England international midfielder has been voted player of the year at Upton Park for the past two seasons and has attracted the interest of a host of Premier League clubs.

Spurs have now made an official approach for the 29-year-old but Hammers chairman David Sullivan insists Parker is not for sale at any price.

"I made a promise that I would not sell Scott and I will not, for any amount of money, break that promise to the West Ham supporters," he told the club’s website.

"Scott is not for sale at any price, to anyone. West Ham supporters, for far too long, have had owners that sell their best players and promise one thing and do another.

"This is a new era. We are building a bigger, better West Ham and when we make a promise, we honour it."
