West Ham: Slaven Bilić won't deny manager talks

Beşiktaş JK boss, Slaven Bilić won't deny talks of him becoming manager at West Ham.

Sam Allardyce's contract at West Ham expires at the end of the season and there are talks of him being shown the door.

Bilić, along with former Manchester Utd boss David Moyes, are touted for the job.

The Croatian, who is preparing Besitkas for their Europa League last-32 clash with Liverpool at Anfield this evening, was cagey when asked whether the Hammers had been in touch.

"All I can say is that I am really happy at Besiktas," Bilic said. "If it's true I don't know at all. So I don't think about it. The speculation doesn't affect me in a negative way. But I'm trying not to talk about it.

"We are concentrating on our next game. I would rather talk about the game. I am totally concentrated on that. Have West Ham contacted me? I wouldn't like to talk about that, and that's it."
