Sunderland have rejected a bid from West Ham United for Connor Wickham.
The Daily Mail says Sunderland have rejected West Ham's £4million bid for Wickham.
The striker has yet to be offered a new contract by the Black Cats, despite manager Gus Poyet issuing a 'sign or leave' ultimatum to the player.
West Ham and Newcastle were alerted to his situation and the Londoners made a bid on Monday.
