At nearly 30 and potentially £30mil fee, I'm trying to think of other players have been that expensive at such an 'old' age as Payet.

 

Think Hulk and Shevchenko were similar ages and went for more money but I'm sure I'm missing someone more obvious

West Ham United have sold Dimitri Payet to Olympique de Marseille for a fee of £25m.

 

The French midfielder has been sold after stating that he no longer wished to play for the Hammers.

 

Joint-Chairman David Sullivan, said: “The Club would like to place on record its sincere disappointment that Dimitri Payet did not show the same commitment and respect to West Ham United that the Club and fans showed him, particularly when it rewarded him with a lucrative new five-and-half-year deal only last year.

 

“I would like to make it clear that we have no financial need to sell our best players and that the decision to allow Payet to leave was in accordance with the wishes of the manager and the interests of squad unity. To be frank, my Board and I would have preferred for him to have stayed in order to make an example of him, as no player is bigger than the club.

 

Miaow.
