West Ham get Dyer for £6million

Kieron Dyer held talks with West Ham yesterday after Newcastle finally accepted the club's £6m bid for the midfielder. Dyer had been expected to join West Ham last week but Newcastle pulled the plug on the deal at the last minute.

Boss Alan Curbishley revived the deal on Monday and the England international is expected to move to Upton Park after negotiations continued with the player and Newcastle, who are hoping for £2m more based on appearances.

Portsmouth now seem unlikely to pursue their bid to sign Newcastle winger Nolberto Solano.

The Peruvian is keen to move closer to his family in London but the resurrection of Dyer's move to West Ham has ruled out a switch to Upton Park.

Solano, 32, attracted interest from Spain but has vowed to stay at St James' Park if he cannot get a move to a Premier League club in the south.
