Pantsil plans Hammers stay

Thu, 26 Jun 2008 Source: --

West Ham defender John Pantsil says he plans to stay at Upton Park despite attracting interest from other clubs.

The Ghana international struggled to hold down a regular place in the Hammers starting XI last season, but impressed after getting a run in the side at the back end of the campaign.

The 27-year-old claims other clubs have expressed an interest in signing him, but Pantsil says he is happy at West Ham.

"Some clubs have made attempts to lure me," Pantsil told ModernGhana. "But what I can say for now is that I am happy at West Ham United and I am prepared to stay on.

"My manager Alan Curbishley is highly impressed with my output so far and is not prepared to let me go - therefore I will stay at the club."
