West Ham's Pellegrini rejects Dzeko speculation

Manuel Pellegrini has denied West Ham are considering a January move for Edin Dzeko.

The Roma striker played for Pellegrini at Manchester City and he suggested this week he would be interested in a Premier League return.

"Regarding the Premier League, maybe it's too late," he told Sky Sports News. "You never know.

Dzeko hit 16 Premier League goals as Pellegrini's City won the 2013-14 title, but he later fell out of favour and joined Roma in 2015.

Pellegrini, though, said Dzeko is not on his radar when he spoke at a news conference on Thursday.
