Viduka, who is currently a free agent after his contract with Newcastle expired at the end of last season, had been the subject of recent interest from Fulham and Portsmouth. However, Fulham boss Roy Hodgson revealed last month the 33-year-old was ready to quit England after a nine-year stint which has included spells with Leeds and Middlesbrough, to play in Croatia. But according to the Daily Mail, Viduka is now in talks with West Ham, and a club statement said Hammers coach Gianfranco Zola is 'discussing the possibility of an out of contract striker joining the club.'

Precisely. No mention of him training since April either. It would be nice if it was a cut & dried retirement.

I know the feeling, Emma Watson never reterns mine either.....:-k Like Kev said,i'm not holding my breath about it either, Dukes and Lucas Neil have pretty much been linked to every club under the sun. I won't accept it untill the deals done, and he;s played at least 10 games straight for them WOLLONGONG WOLVES FOR A-LEAGUE EXPANSION!

I honestly can't recall ever two Australian high profile players taking an eternity to find clubs before?? Is Dukes interested or not? Or is he not even bothered to release a press statement so his fans are in the picture? The same goes with Neill. If he keeps procrastinating any longer the January transfer window will open!!
