West Ham join Everton in race for Marseille midfielder Payet

West Ham United are reportedly eyeing Marseille midfielder Dimitri Payet.


The 28-year old attacking midfielder is being linked with a move away from the Stade Velodrome this summer, despite having two years left on his contract, and is being tipped to make his way to the Premier League.

The Hammers signed Pedro Obiang this week and are now looking to sign a more attacking player to compliment the Spaniard who joined from Italian club Sampdoria.

Everton have already been credited with an interest in France international Payet but now West Ham could make their presence felt according to L'Equipe.
