Bilic feels 'let down' and 'angry' about Dimitri Payet's transfer request

Payet has been heavily linked with a transfer away from the Hammers in the January transfer window and it appears the 29-year-old is now itching to move on from the London Stadium. The France star dropped a massive hint on Twitter only last week after ‘liking’ a post calling for him to leave the club as Arsenal and Manchester United continue to show an interest. At his press conference on Thursday, Bilic said: ‘This team, the staff, we gave him everything, we were always there for him.

‘I feel let down. I feel angry.’

However, Bilic stressed that he has no plans to sell Payet who is the Hammers’ prized possession off the back of a barnstorming 2015/16 campaign. ‘Let’s get serious. I have a situation with a player. It is Dimitri Payet. He wants to leave,’ Bilic added. ‘We have said we don’t want to sell our best players but Payet does not want to play for us.

‘We are not going to sell him.’
