Cheikhou Kouyate is the latest West Ham star set to commit his future to the club.

The 26-year-old star is believed to have been handed a four-year deal to reward him for being one of the most consistent performers in the Hammers team.

The Hammers rejected a £15million bid for the Senegalese international midfielder last summer.

Now Kouyate , who joined the club from Anderlecht in 2014, will join Dimitri Payet in being one of the key players around whom West Ham will continue building.

Mirrorfootball exclusively revealed earlier this week details of the massive £125,000-a-week with which the east Londoners rewarded Payet for his magnificent displays this season.
