The club were willing to offer a £38million fee and £135,000-a-week wages after tax.

West Ham coach, Slaven Bilić has revealed that the Hammers have offered the forward a new deal.

“We are very, very close to signing because both parties have the same intention and that's to stay at West Ham,” said Bilic.

“We will do everything to make that happen. In one hand every player has a price but he is happy and we are more than happy and I hope, and think he will be with us for a long time.”
