West Ham United have confirmed that Dimitri Payet has signed a new five-and-a-half-year deal with the club.

The 28-year-old joined the Hammers from Marseille last summer and has quickly established himself as a key player for Slaven Bilic's side, scoring six league goals and creating six more despite seeing his season interrupted by injury.

Payet has now committed his long-term future to the capital outfit, signing a deal that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2021.

The France international's form has seen him thrust right back in contention for a place in Les Bleus' squad for the European Championship on home soil at the end of this season.

West Ham currently sit sixth in the Premier League table and are in the hunt for a European place in what is their final season at the Boleyn Ground before they move to the Olympic Stadium next term.

The Hammers will take on Norwich City at Carrow Road this weekend.
