St Etienne midfielder Yann M'Vila is being lined up for a return to England.

L'Equipe says West Ham and Crystal Palace have sounded out ASSE about a price for M'Vila.

The former Sunderland midfielder still has three years left on his deal and ASSE are under no pressure to sell.

However, M'Vila has been unsettled by the departure of coach Jean-Louis Gasset.

It's been revealed West Ham have been in talks with ASSE for several weeks about the France international.
