Olympique Marseille are being warned over their plans to re-sign Dimitri Payet from West Ham.

Under the club's new owners, there are plans to splash out to buy back Payet this month.

However, local pundit Daniel Riolo said: "He's played in a moribund club, he had a good season last year, he managed his season with (Marcelo) Bielsa at 75%.

"We must calm down with Payet, he would be good for OM, but the pay and conditions of the transfer, I can not believe that OM would go for such a blow. It seems a little crazy."

Christophe Bouchet also remarked: "There is a nostalgia and a fantasy around Payet that is far superior to the player that one would discover."
