West Ham United winger Hogan Ephraim rejected the opportunity to rejoin Colchester United on loan before Thursday's deadline.
Ephraim, 19, spent time on loan at Layer Road last season but boss Geraint Williams has revealed he has snubbed an approach to return to the Championship club.
Ephraim recently returned to Upton Park after three months on loan at QPR.
"We were looking to sign Hogan on a loan deal with a view to a permanent basis in January," Williams told the club's official website.
"We've had talks with Hogan and his representatives, but he's since informed us that he won't be joining us at this moment in time."
