Dimi Payet has now shown the world on the international stage that he is one of the greatest players on the planet following his display for France last night.
Some are predicting this could be bad news for the Hammers and that offers for the brilliant playmaker are now entirely inevitable.

Here’s what they have to say:
O My only consolation is that if he goes, it’s going to be for seriously big money.
O If this was to happen, and I genuinely believe it won’t, but IF it did, for the reported 50-60million, I’d have to say, personally, I’d take it. As a club you have to replace a player with as good or better for the same money or less than you’re getting for your player. £50-60million would, without doubt, get us a world class playmaker
O Can’t see him going tbh. Whufc on the up, but it will no doubt encourage the board to buy more quality to keep him though 😄⚒ What a player, he just makes me smile
O Every player has a price and 60m for a 29 year old……you’d have to take it no matter how good the player is
O Think we will have a challenge to keep hold of him this summer. There will be some big money offers out there, Could show how much he wants to play for us
O Don’t see the likes of Real or Barca offering that kind of money for him. The likes of PSG, and China worry me.
O I we sell him, I only hope the board dont sell him to another English club. if PSG come in with bid of 45million plus I think he will ask to go
60 million is huge and could never be turned down, but no one will pay it. However unfortunately I come from a family that has a few Spurs fan in it! And they all say to me would they rather have Bale still than the 80 mil they got for him. If we got 60 mil who’s to say anyone world class would sign! By the sounds of it no one wants to join us at the moment anyway! I fear that playing so well could possibly get the likes of Real Madrid interested and he’d obviously want to there I think
Don’t think he will leave, well not yet anyway.
Best FB comment is the 2nd one, err he is a world class playmaker
Hate to think we may lose him. Be 30 soon. If the chance of champs league football for a massive club came this late in his career, would you blame him for taking it? Be hard to criticise him but heartily hope we keep hold of him. He oozes class and just brings a smile to my face.
I don’t think he is one of these money grabbing footballers. You only had to see how emotions got the better of him last night. He loves West Ham and the fans have shown how much they love him, he has said many times no fans have ever treated him so well as us. At 29 no team will pay the money West Ham would accept. Lets just enjoy a WH player
lighting up the Euro’s.
If we want to get a world class striker, then we have to provide him with the best midfielder to both show him we are really serious about being a top club and that it’s in his best interest too.
If we sell him, the message to all the strikers we are pursuing will be, “don’t waste your time, this club is not serious”
