Premier League new-boys Stoke City have been linked with a move for United's Danny Gabbidon.
The Welsh centre-half, who was signed by Alan Pardew for £2 million two years ago has failed to appear for the Hammers since last December due to an ongoing groin problem.Rumours of a falling-out with manager Alan Curbishley have led to speculation that he is a likely candidate to leave the club this summer.
Elsewhere, Alan Curbishley has been linked with a move for Reading striker Kevin Doyle.
The weekend press claimed that the Hammers were prepared to pay up to £7.5 million (surely a misprint) for the Irish international.
