West Ham United boss Alan Curbishley is confident of agreeing a new contract with goalkeeper Robert Green.

The 28-year-old has been linked with moves away from Upton Park after an impressive season in which he has made 39 appearances.

Green has been constantly overlooked for England selection since winning his one and only cap during a friendly against Colombia in the USA three years ago.

But Curbishley believes the former Norwich City keeper will pledge his long-term future to the Hammers by signing a new contract.

"The club will be keen to keep all the players," he said.

"Rob's done very well this year and has been very consistent. I don't think there will be any problems (with a new deal)."

Green joined the Hammers from Norwich for £2million in the summer of 2006 and the highly-rated shot-stopper has gone on to make 66 appearances.
