Cats closing in on Ferdinand
25 Aug 2008 - 11:11:35
West Ham United's Anton Ferdinand is set for a move to Sunderland, after Hammers boss Alan Curbishley revealed that his club had accepted an offer for the central defender.
The 23-year-old is reported to be valued in the £8million bracket, with Curbishley confirming that talks about a new contract had stalled at Upton Park.
He told BBC Radio 5 Live: "The board have accepted the bid, he's not renegotiated his contract and the decision was taken out of my hands.
"I don't know where Anton is in terms of signing for Sunderland, but once the club accept the bid it moves on.
"We are thin on the ground and if we lose another defender we will have to react to that."
Curbishley had said late last week that Ferdinand was unlikely to be going anywhere, as he remains sidelined by a hamstring injury.
