Just a few days ago, a consortium led by Icelandic businessman Eggert Magnusson, who recently purchased a London club, is already targeting the first players - a club not performing very well in the English Premier League has made an offer for the out-of-favor right-back Shaun Wright-Phillips, with the sum believed to be around 10 million pounds sterling.
"Interest has been expressed from West Ham club, and we have received an official offer," said Chelsea's CEO Peter Kenyon on Friday. "We are not planning to sell our players, but if we receive a good offer, we will seriously consider it."
English champions Chelsea acquired this 25-year-old defender in July 2005 from Man City for a staggering sum of 21 million pounds sterling.
However, the English national team player has only played 12 matches for the team since joining Mourinho's squad, appearing on the field 23 times as a substitute.
Despite wearing Chelsea's colors, the legendary Arsenal striker Ian Wright's nephew has yet to score a goal.
West Ham received the money they will spend in January at the player transfer market when the club's reins were taken over by Icelanders Eggert Magnusson and his friend Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson.
Currently, West Ham is in the 16th position in the English Premier League and in the previous round had to acknowledge Chelsea's superiority.
