West Ham United are reportedly closing in on a move for Marseille winger Dimitri Payet.

A recent report claimed that the Hammers would sign the France international before the end of the week after seeing a bid of around £14m accepted by the Ligue 1 club.

Payet will now fly to England on Thursday morning to hold talks with West Ham officials ahead of a potential move, according to Sky Sports News.

Payet claimed 21 assists for OM last term as they finished fourth in the Ligue 1 table.
