​Payet aims to impress West Ham fans with attacking style

New West Ham signing Dimitri Payet says he wants to thrill fans with his attacking play.

The 28-year-old midfielder tells West Ham's official website: "I'm an attacking footballer so for sure I like attacking football and that they're counting on me to help achieve that gives me a sense of responsibility.

"The fact that I'm here is also down to that. I'm very happy to be here. It's true that it's taken a little while but that's normal, negotiations are like that. But now that it's done, I'm very happy."
