Dimitri Payet Has Been 'Offered' To West Ham And Supporters Are Completely Divided
Published
| Last updated
Dimitri Payet has reportedly been offered the chance to return to West Ham after just 18 months away,
The Frenchman was one of the standout performers for the Hammers under former boss Slaven Bilić but in January of 2017 reports started to surface that the attacker wanted to leave the club and head back to Marseille.

A £25 million pound bid for him by his former side was accepted by the Irons and he returned to Ligue 1.
The manner in which Payet left West Ham deeply hurt supporters. After his departure, a mural of the player at the London Stadium was replaced by one of Andy Carroll, and videos emerged online of fans putting a replica of his jersey on the ground before treading and jumping on it.
But now - in what will be one of the most talked about transfer rumours of the summer, perhaps even more so than the recent Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus reports - the 31-year-old is linked with a move back to the London side.
West Ham have been offered the chance to sign Dimitri Payet from Marseille. No, it's not 2015. Player's reps have contacted club. Manuel Pellegrini mulling it over and has sought advice from senior players #whufc

It's come as a surprise partly because of the manner of his departure and also because Payet is thought to be happy in France. Would be a stunning story if it happens #whufc

Fans don't know which way to turn. They want their star man back but haven't forgotten the pain and anguish he gave them earlier last year.
I don't care what anyone says. If Payet comes back, scores a worldly and does the crossed irons all will be forgiven. The man almost single handedly brought us Champions league football and gave Upton Park the best send off imaginable. He can be forgiven!

"Payet fucked us over. How can anyone take him back?"

Let's be real, West Ham fuck us over every fucking day, we still go crawling back.
Seeing as it has been leaked now by many sources the player was Payet! Shockingly his agent got in touch with club because Marseille need to sell. He said he would be happy to return because the personal issues he had have been resolved. It is very unlikely at this point though⚒

I wish I could say I don't want Payet back, I wish I could say I hated him, I wish I could say I never want to see him playing in a West Ham shirt again.

Payet scored ten goals for Marseille last season but an injury in the UEFA Europa League final saw him miss a chance of flying out to Russia in the France squad for the World Cup.
