West Ham line up Payet replacement

West Ham will move to replace bad boy Dimitri Payet with a £20million bid for Swansea star Gylfi Sigurdsson claim the Daily Express. The report claim Bilic has singled out Icelandic star Sigurdsson, who has scored five goals this season as the man he wants to step into the shoes of Payet.However, Paul Clement says he has no intention of allowing Sigurdsson to leave Swansea City in this transfer window.

He said: “You need to keep your best players and Gylfi and Fernando (Llorente) are two of the best players the team has got.

“You’d possibly expect interest in them, but they’re signed and contracted here and I want to keep them.”

The set-piece specialist signed a new four-year deal in August.

Everton are also interested Sigurdsson and said to be prepared to pay up to £25m to capture him.
