West Ham in £5m Lisbie bid
As Alan Curbishley becomes even more desperate in the rush to spend money on anyone he can ever remember seeing play in more than one position, it appears that the ex-Charlton manager has cast his mind back far enough to a certain Kevin Lisbie.
After being denied the opportunity to spend £17m on Darren Bent and
£2.5m on Hermann Hreidarsson he has turned his attentions to 'young up and coming prospect' Kevin Lisbie.
Curbishley was quoted as saying earlier this evening with the transfer deadline fast approaching
"that the Hammers' fans demand Academy Football and Kevin fits the role perfectly as he has spent the last 10 years in Charlton's."West Ham's Icelandic chairman Eggert Magnusson is said to be prepared to stump up £5m for Lisbie plus all the Icelandic
Þorramatur the forward/winger/medical experiment can eat.
