Payet Makes Huge Transfer Decision

France midfielder Dimitri Payet says he is staying at West Ham despite interest from other European teams after his strong performances during Euro 2016.

The 29-year-old was one of the star players at Euro 2016 and several top clubs were reportedly interested in prizing him away from West Ham.

But Payet told The Sun newspaper: “I’ve heard about all the interest and I’m flattered.

“But I love West Ham. We had a fantastic season and I can’t wait to play in the Olympic Stadium.

 

“I’m 100 per cent staying at West Ham, I love the club. I can tell the Hammers fans that.”

Real Madrid In Pursuit of Hammers Star

Real Madrid have earmarked West Ham United’s creator-in-chief Dimitri Payet as a potential transfer target in the case either James Rodriguez or Jese leaves in the summer, reports France Football, via Get French Football.

Payet, 29, is enjoying what he has called the best year in his career for West Ham this season and his performances have been instrumental behind the Hammers’ blistering campaign.

The former Marseille forward has even forced his way back into contention with the France national team ahead of the Euros in the summer and his performances haven’t gone unnoticed by Madrid, who are interested in signing him in the summer.

Rodriguez or Jese may be forced to find first-team football elsewhere at the end of the season after falling out of favour with Zinedine Zidane and the Frenchman could look to a fellow countryman as one of their replacements.

Eboue"s Contract Terminated By Sunderland

Sunderland defender Emmanuel Eboue has had his contract terminated by the Premier League club after being placed under an immediate suspension from football by FIFA.

The governing body confirmed on Thursday that Eboue has been banned from football for one year or until he pays money owed to a former agent.

Now, Sunderland have made the decision to rip up the Ivorian’s contract just months after terminating Adam Johnson’s contract for sex crimes.

 

Eboue was ordered to pay Sebastien Boisseau in July 2013 following a contractual dispute.

The defender, who joined Sunderland on March 9, was fined 30,000 Swiss francs (£21,000) in September 2014 for failing to meet the agreement and was given 120 days to settle the case with Boisseau.
