Sam Allardyce rules out Graham Dorrans, Stewart Downing moves

West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce has ruled out summer moves for Graham Dorrans and Stewart Downing.

The Hammers have recently been linked with West Bromwich Albion midfielder Dorrans, while preliminary talks were thought to have taken place between the club and Liverpool for winger Downing.

"No interest in Graham Dorrans," Allardyce is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

He added: "I wouldn't have thought that we could afford Stewart, unfortunately."

West Ham will fly out to Germany in the coming days ahead of three pre-season friendlies.
