Dimitri Payet has told Slaven Bilic he would like to leave West Ham United during the January transfer window for Marseille. Payet's wish to leave is in part because of his family's unhappiness with life in London.

Payet joined West Ham from Marseille in the summer of 2015 for £10.7m and signed a new contract to 2021 in February of last year.

Payet is refusing to train or play for West Ham and he is not hiding behind any injury, as can sometimes happen in these sort of situations. 

Bilic has in response said that he will not allow Payet to feature until the player’s attitude changes.

Bilic talked about feeling “angry” and “let down” by Payet and outlined the club’s position, which is to dig in for the rest of January, refuse to sell and hope that the player can be reintegrated after the closure of the transfer window.
