Niang loan on hold

West Ham transfer target M’Baye Niang has taken to twitter to calm down Hammers fans eager to hear news of his loan to East London. Writing in English Niang wrote “Im on vacation so the man to contact is my agent Stephane Courbis thanks!!’

Both clubs are thought to have agreed a £250,000 loan fee with an option to buy at end of the season but the player is on holiday and yet to make a decision on his future.
