Newcastle United midfielder Kieron Dyer's move to West Ham United
is off.
Dyer appeared set to be reunited with a clutch of his former
Newcastle team-mates at Upton Park after agreeing personal
terms.
But Hammers boss Alan Curbishley has told Sky Sports News that the
transfer has been 'pulled' by The Magpies.
Curbishley also doubted the prospects of the deal for the England
international being resurrected before the start of the
season.
"We agreed a fee with Newcastle and we agreed personal terms with
the player," Curbishley told Sky Sports News.
"The player passed a medical, but at the 11th hour, the
11th-and-a-half hour, it got pulled by Newcastle for their
reasons.
"There is not much we can do about it.
"The boy has been left in limbo, obviously. He was just about to
come and train with us.
"It's been pulled and the likelihood is it's going to stay that
way.
"It's the first time I can remember anything like this happening.
It's happened and we have got to get on with it."
