whitts2Malky Mackay has admitted he's rejected a £3m bid from West Ham United for Peter Whittingham.

Whittingham, who signed a new contract last August, has become City's most influential player this season scoring eight goals.

"Peter Whiitingham is not for sale," said Mackay.

"I'm here to improve this football club and bring players in not sell them.

"We've had an approach in terms of a call but that's all it was.

"It was from West Ham but Peter is not for sale."
