Dutch club FC Twente have today confirmed that no English clubs have made an offer for their Belgium international winger Nacer Chadli.
West Ham, along with London rivals Tottenham and Capital One Cup winners Swansea were all linked with the player last week but according to the Dutch side, only the Swans have made an offer for Chadli- which he rejected.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Twente chairman Joop Munsterman said today: "So far only Swansea and Shakhtar [Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk] have made concrete offers, and are still options, even though Nacer has opted not to go to them. We hope for some clarity this week."
West Ham manager Sam Allardyce was reported to have made an inquiry for Chadli but nothing more and the Irons' chances of landing the player seem distant as it is understood that the young Belgian is holding out for a move to Spurs, with the attraction of European football a consideration.

McDonald dismisses 'paper talk' of Hammers move for Downing
West Ham assistant manager Neil McDonald has brushed aside reports the club are set to sign England winger Stewart Downing in a cut price move.
The Star, amongst others, reported yesterday that the Irons are in talks with the 28 year old Liverpool midfielder, but McDonald has cooled any transfer talk.
"He's a very good player," the No 2 told ClubCall in the last hour.
"A player of that calibre and West Ham being involved would be great, but it's all just paper talk at the moment."
McDonald did not, however, move to quash other transfer rumours after reports that the club have made an inquiry for Belgium star Nacer Chadli.

Irons to battle Spurs for Belgium star Chadli
Sam Allardyce's quest for a wide player has advanced after the West Ham boss made an inquiry about FC Twente winger Nacer Chadli.
The Belgium international is attracting much interest and Premier League sides Liverpool, Fulham and Tottenham have all joined the Hammers in inquiring about the explosive winger.
Spurs are currently leading the chase for Chadli after reports in Holland this morning that the North London outfit are in talks with Twente about a deal for their prize asset. However, the two clubs are thought to be some way apart in terms of valuation as Spurs have put a deal worth around £7m on the table and the Dutch side want a figure closer to £9m.
Swansea, who are expected to conclude a deal for Ivory Coast striker Wilfried Bony today, are also interested in the player.
