Lucas Neill insists he is fully committed to West Ham.

The Australian, who is believed to be one of the highest earners at Upton Park, has been strongly linked with a move away from the club this summer.

Turkish club Galatasaray have made an offer - a story exclusively revealed by skysports.com - whilst Neill's former Blackburn boss Mark Hughes, now in charge at Manchester City, has also been strongly linked.

West Ham's interest in Swiss star Valon Behrami - who can play at right back - has also cast doubt over Neill's place in Alan Curbishley's plans.

But Neill himself is insistent he will not be moving.

"I'm a West Ham player," Neill toldThe Sun. "That's the start and finish of it."
