David Sullivan has warned West Ham's Premier League rivals that the club's first-team stars are not for sale at any price next month.

Newcastle have been tracking fit-again, in-form Andy Carroll while summer signing Diafra Sakho has hit eight goals in 12 appearances.

But Hammers joint-chairman Sullivan told Mirror Football: "In January there is not any price we would sell any players for. First team players will not be sold.

"We are happy where we are, we don't want to unsettle the team, we are short of numbers with the Africa Cup of Nations and I can't imagine any circumstances where we would sell a player in January."

Sullivan admitted the club will listen to offers for fringe players but maintained there will be no panic buys or gambles as there have been in previous years.

"We'd sell a squad player because we are looking at bringing players in in Janaury. But we've got the luxury of buying for the future. Normally we are buying through panic but not on this occasion."
