West Ham have had a second bid for Brentford striker Scott Hogan rejected, Sky sources understand.

The Hammers had a £10m offer for the 24-year-old turned down on Thursday.

A "buttock injury" kept Hogan out of the Brentford squad for their FA Cup third round tie against Eastleigh but the Bees expect him to return to training on Monday or Tuesday.

Talks with West Ham - who themselves exited the FA Cup with a 5-0 home defeat to Manchester City on Friday night - remain ongoing.

Take a look at striker Scott Hogan in action after Brentford reject a second bid from West Ham.

Hogan has 18 months left on his current contract at Brentford and is willing to leave in January in order to secure Premier League football.
