West Ham are in talks with Olympiakos about selling Alessandro Diamanti and Radoslav Kovac but are determined to keep Scott Parker.
The Hammers, who are £90million in debt, are looking to revamp their squad under new boss Avram Grant.
They are close to landing several transfer targets including Mexican winger Pablo Barrera.
But West Ham also want to move on several stars to generate funds for new signings.
And both Italian midfielder Diamanti, 27, and Czech ace Kovac, 30, can go which has prompted an official approach from the Greek club for the pair.
Upton Park insiders continue to insist midfield talisman and captain Parker is not for sale though.
Parker, 29, has been heavily linked with a move to Aston Villa to replace Man City-bound James Milner.
But Hammers officials are adamant there has been no approach from Villa for Parker and would not welcome one either.
