West Ham are ready to make a move for Australia international Mark Schwarzer after the experienced goalkeeper rejected a new contract at Fulham.
Fulham manager Martin Jol confirmed the news, saying: "We made an offer to them and he did not accept that. There is no deadline. We will hope to talk with him as well."
The 37 year old's future has been the subject of sustained speculation over the last two months and was strongly linked with a move to Upton Park last month, with Irons boss Sam Allardyce in the market for a new goalkeeper, according to club sources.
However, Sports Direct News are reporting this afternoon that Schwarzer has turned down what was believed to be a long term deal on the table from the Cottagers and with the goalkeeper out of contract, Allardyce could now land the former Boro man, capped 103 times by his country, on a free transfer this summer.
