In June 2003, frustrated by a lack of first-team opportunities at his preferred position of leftback, Konchesky made a written request for a transfer, which was accepted by Charlton.[4] However, firm offers were not forthcoming and in September 2003, Konchesky joined Tottenham Hotspur on one-month loan.[5] The loan was extended for a further month[6] and then until January 2004.[7] Although Konchesky was keen on a permanent move to Tottenham,[8] no move materialised and a spate of injuries at Charlton led to Konchesky being recalled from loan in December 2003,[9] when he also came off the transfer list.[10] In July 2005, Konchesky signed for West Ham,[11] having made a total of 169 appearances for Charlton in all competitions, scoring six goals, and 15 appearances for Tottenham.[2] Charlton Athletic Football Club (also known as The Addicks) is a professional football club based in Charlton, in the London Borough of Greenwich. ...

Konchesky made a total of 70 league and cup appearances for West Ham, scoring two goals.[2] The FA Cup Final 2006 was the final and deciding match of the FA Cup 2005-06. ...
