West Ham continue to remain firm on the future of wantaway playmaker Dimitri Payet after turning down an improved offer from his former club Marseille.
It is understood a fee, believed to be just over the £20million mark, was rebuffed by co-chairman David Sullivan on Monday afternoon.
Payet shocked the Hammers last week by declaring his desire to leave the London Stadium, despite having only signed a fresh deal last February after shining in his first season in the Premier League.
The 29-year-old quickly established himself as a fans' favourite following his signing from Marseille, and was named as West Ham's player of the year for their final campaign at Upton Park.
