Parker staying at West Ham

Parker has been linked with a move to Manchester City in the January transfer window.

“Do I see my long-term future at West Ham? Yes,” Parker said in the Daily Telegraph.

“The team are playing well under the new management and with the lads here, we’ve got something that’s really good.

“I’m happy, I’m enjoying myself and I feel I’m playing some good stuff.

“I’m owned by West Ham and I get paid by West Ham. I want to play football and that’s it, everything else is out of my hands.

“If someone rings me tomorrow and says, ‘We’re selling you’, I can’t do anything about that. But I’m a West Ham player and until anyone tells me any different that’s the way it is.”
