West Ham United captain Scott Parker looks almost certain to leave the club in January, especially if results do not improve.
The 30-year old midfielder has been the constant light in the Hammers' dark start to the season but with relegation imminent if points are not consistently recorded, he may be forced to walk out.
West Ham will benefit from the likely lucrative transfer fee but his loss will be enormous as his on-field exploits have kept the East London club from copping several heavy defeats in the opening three months of the season.
