Dimitri Payet's agent has insisted the France forward is 'happy' at West Ham and is unlikely to complete a transfer away from the club this summer.

Payet's scintillating form for the Hammers in his debut season in England last term led to the 29-year-old being nominated for the PFA Player of the Year award while his performances for Slaven Bilic's side earned him a call-up to France's squad for Euro 2016.

There he has impressed with crucial goals in Les Bleus' group stage wins over Romania and Albania, which led to Payet - who only signed a new long-term contract at West Ham in February - being linked with a summer move to Real Madrid, PSG and Inter Milan.

Despite former Nerazzurri president Massimo Moratti saying he "would love to see Payet in an Inter shirt", his agent Jacques-Olivier Auguste has said there is little chance of the Frenchman leaving West Ham this summer.

"He has a great contract with West Ham so I cannot see him leaving," Auguste told The Guardian.

"Dimitri is happy in London. Of course you never know in football. 

"But only West Ham know what price they want if they decide to sell him."

Payet is expected to start when France take on Iceland in the quarter-finals of the European Championships in Paris on Sunday.
