The talismanic Scotland international, 22, has been the heartbeat of the Baggies' successful promotion charge from the Championship this season and was voted the second best player outside the top flight at the recent Football League Awards. And such is the club's determination to hold onto their prize asset that they have moved quickly and strongly to rejected a sizeable offer from the Hammers, whose own Premier League status was confirmed at the weekend. The Baggies can expect a lot of interest in Dorrans over the summer with several top-flight clubs linked with a move for his services. But chairman Jeremy Peace insists he is not for sale, saying: "As I have stressed several times since we achieved promotion over two weeks ago, our aim now is to retain our core players and try to strengthen our squad around them. "I want to make it clear again that Graham Dorrans is not for sale."
