According to reports from The Guardian, Montpellier have rejected West Ham’s opening bid for striker Gaetan Laborde.
West Ham made an opening loan offer for the 26-year-old with an obligation to buy in the summer.
However, the French outfit have rejected the offer, as they will consider only a sale. The Hammers need to pay around £16m to sign him.
