With speculation rife that the Hammers could cash in on some of the assets, the fact that no key players left the club in January will also be of some comfort to long-suffering Hammers supporters.
Speaking to the official site Avram Grant admitted he was pleased with the capture of Robbie Keane. “Robbie Keane is not just a good player, but a good character.
“I am really happy to have him; he can help us a lot and brings plenty of quality.”
