Dimi Payet has sent a brilliant tweet assuring the fans that he wants to stay at our club for many years.
Fair play to West Ham and its media department it has moved quickly to quash rumours of unrest surrounding the player.
After being hit by stories in the Fleet Street’s gutter press suggesting that Manchester United and Chelsea were interested, the club posted an official statement declaring that they had in fact initiated talks for a new deal with Dimi!
And the player was quick to follow up declaring: “I say & I repeat I’m proud to wear the shirt of west ham My future is here and I hope for many years http://wes.hm/Payet0902 @whufc_official.
So we can now call that one a day despite some fans suggesting it’s odd that his little slump in form coincided with the stories of a possible move emerging.
That is just silly and as ClaretandHugh has reported since the start of the story, Payet won’t be going anywhere – a fact which he has brilliantly confirmed this morning.
