Ligue 1 side Marseille are reportedly preparing a third offer for wantaway West Ham United playmaker Dimitri Payet having seen their first two bids rejected.

Marseille are reportedly lining up a third bid for Dimitri Payet after seeing their initial two offers turned down by West Ham United.

The Ligue 1 outfit lodged an opening bid of £19.1m to re-sign the France international last week before returning with a slightly improved second offer earlier today.

The Hammers have been unequivocal in their insistence that Payet will not be leaving the club this month, though, rejecting both approaches despite the 29-year-old insisting that he no longer wants to play for Slaven Bilic's side.

Reports earlier this evening suggested that Payet would only leave for Marseille due to family reasons, though, which Sky Sports News claims has convinced the French club to return with a third offer.

Payet spent two seasons with Marseille before joining West Ham, scoring 15 goals in 83 appearances.
