West Ham snub £20M bid for want-away talisman and will hold out for triple that figure as Premier League giants circle

Posted by

West Ham have rejected a £20 million bid for want-away star Dimitri Payet with several Premier League clubs interested in signing him, report the Express.

As reported by the Express, Hammers boss Slaven Bilic today revealed that Payet no longer wanted to play for the club, and he will subsequently not be involved in training or any of their upcoming matches.

It appears as though the race to secure his signature is hotting up already. The Express cite Goal in reporting that Payet has already been subject of a £20 million bid from his former employers Marseille.  That was, however, swiftly turned down.

West Ham ought to brace themselves for further interest in their talisman, though, as the Express believe Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United are all interested in signing him this month. The tabloid believe that West Ham will hold out for as much as £60 million if they are to part with their prize posession.
