West Ham manager Slaven Bilic has ruled out a move for former Arsenal and Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna.
Reports have linked the under-fire Hammers boss with a move for the Frenchman, however, in his Standard Sport column the Croatian has stated there is no need for another right-back.
He wrote: "We have been linked with Bacary Sagna, who is out of contract and a free agent.
"Bacary is a fine player who has played at the highest standard, but he is a full-back and this is not a position in which we need strengthening."
The club had been desperate to strengthen their right-back options last season, with Michail Antonio often filling the void, however the signing of Sagna’s former City team-mate Pablo Zabaleta supposedly solved their problems.
Bilic takes his side into their first home game of the season against Huddersfield on Monday night, and will be desperate to secure three points and bring a positive atmosphere to the London Stadium following a disappointing start to the campaign.
