West Ham looked to have clinched the signing of Dimitri Payet.

Everton had been linked with the Marseille winger in recent weeks, although admittedly that particular rumour seemed to die down pretty quick.

Instead, Payet is set for a £12m move to East London, according to the Daily Mail, it had previously been thought that Payet would sign a new deal to stay in the South of France.

But now it appears as though new Hammers boss Slaven Billic has sweet talked Payet into a move to his new club - and ruled out any chance of his old club signing the French international.

And finally, the wait goes on for Everton fans today as they hope to see the signing of Gerard Deulofeu finally confirmed by the club.

The deal with Barcelona is agreed and the Blues expect the transfer to be completed imminently.

Deulofeu's return to Goodison Park has long been wanted by fans - and they will be hoping it happens sooner, rather than later.
