He has made 338 appearances for the club since signing from Wigan in 2009 and has won two Premier League titles, two League Cups, the FA Cup and Europa League.The 33-year-old is a year younger than Zabaleta and it is understood a free transfer would mean West Ham would be able to afford his 100,000-a-week wages.
