West Ham United are expected to finalize the transfer of Dimitri Payet despite rejecting Marseille's latest attempt to sign the Frenchman.
The France international is currently training with the Hammers' reserves as he edges closer to a return to the south of France.
According to The Sun, the Hammers will conclude the sale of Payet before the deadline with Marseille likely to come up with a renewed bid for their former star.
Marseille have already had four bids rebuffed for the player with their latest offer of £27m still being below the Hammers' £30m valuation.
Payet is said to be willing to take a significant pay cut on his £125,000 weekly wages, and this will probably convince Marseille to match his valuation prior to Tuesday's 11 pm deadline.
The 29-year-old has already faced the furore among the West Ham faithful, and the club will seek to offload him at the earliest opportunity.
