McDonald dismisses 'paper talk' of Hammers move for Downing

West Ham assistant manager Neil McDonald has brushed aside reports the club are set to sign England winger Stewart Downing in a cut price move.

The Star, amongst others, reported yesterday that the Irons are in talks with the 28 year old Liverpool midfielder, but McDonald has cooled any transfer talk.

"He's a very good player," the No 2 told ClubCall in the last hour.

"A player of that calibre and West Ham being involved would be great, but it's all just paper talk at the moment."

McDonald did not, however, move to quash other transfer rumours after reports that the club have made an inquiry for Belgium star Nacer Chadli.
