Club ready to give up on signing ‘excellent’ West Ham player, David Moyes wants him gone
Olympique Marseille are reportedly ready to give up their pursuit to sign Said Benrahma, with West Ham’s demands too high for the French club.
The Algerian international has been strongly linked with a move to the Ligue 1 giants this January, with Olympique Lyonnais, Everton and Brentford also reportedly interested in Benrahma.
Yet it is Marseille who have had the strongest interest in the former Bees star, with West Ham reportedly rejecting a loan offer from the French side for the 28-year-old winger.

And now, , Marseille are ready to give up on their pursuit of Benrahma entirely, with West Ham’s financial demands simply too much for the Ligue 1 side.
, the Scottish manager and West Ham are seemingly ready to sell Benrahma if the right offer comes in for the Algerian in the coming days.
However, Marseille pulling out of the race could strongly hint towards West Ham overvaluing Benrahma, who is now ready for a new challenge beyond east London.
West Ham should lower their demands for Said Benrahma amid Marseille interest

With a few days of the window left to go, time is slowly running out for West Ham to offload Benrahma, with Marseille seemingly the most likely destination for the forward.
However, with the Irons demanding way too much, Moyes and his team need to come to an understanding that offloading Benrahma might be better than keeping the winger around.
As a result, West Ham should bow down to the demands the French club are willing to meet for Benrahma, who could be come a superstar in Ligue 1.
Moreover, the Hammers always have an opportunity to renegotiate terms with Marseille if Benrahma ends up performing in France, a prospect West Ham will be hopeful of happening.
