West Ham are keeping an eye on Town midfielder Owen Garvan, according to a report in one of this morning's tabloids. The Dubliner has been a regular in the centre of Town's midfield this season and also made his first U21 appearance for the Republic of Ireland.
Garvan is contracted to the Blues until June 2009 and, with Marcus Evans's takeover set to be rubber-stamped by shareholders on Monday, the Blues are in a position where they will be able to withstand offers for their young stars.
