‘It’s obvious he’s been tapped by a big club’ – Danny Murphy on Dimitri Payet’s West Ham revelation

Danny Murphy has told talkSPORT that Dimitri Payet has likely been advised to ‘kick up a stink’ and force an exit from West Ham to join a bigger club.

Manager Slaven Bilic dropped a huge bombshell on Thursday by revealing Hammers star Payet has asked to leave the Premier League club and is refusing to play against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

The playmaker’s future at the Olympic Stadium has been a topic of debate since the summer, where he made his quality known on an international stage with Euro 2016 hosts and finalists France.
